Fundamental
Equations in Quantum Mechanics:
1. Phase, Frequency, Time, and Energy in Wave Dynamics:
These equations aim to establish relationships
between phase, frequency, time, and energy in wave dynamics, especially
regarding how changes in these parameters relate to each other and affect the
energy associated with wave behavior. These equations are significant as they
describe how changes in frequency or differences between frequencies are
associated with changes in energy, illustrating the relationship between energy
and frequency within the quantum domain.
ΔE = h(f₀ - f₁) or ΔE = hΔf
Where:
• ΔE represents the change in energy between
two states or events.
• h is Planck's constant, denoted by 'h'
(approximately 6.626 × 10⁻³⁴ Joule seconds or
4.135 × 10⁻¹⁵ electron volts
seconds).
• f₀ and f₁ represent frequencies. In the context of this
equation, they indicate two different frequencies or a change in frequency (Δf
= f₀ - f₁).
• The equation ΔE = h(f₀ - f₁) signifies the energy
change (ΔE) between two frequencies, f₀ and f₁. It demonstrates the energy variation
resulting from the difference between these two frequencies. Mathematically,
it's calculated by multiplying Planck's constant (h) by the difference in
frequencies (f₀ - f₁).
• Alternatively, ΔE = hΔf represents the
change in energy (ΔE) due to the change in frequency (Δf) of a wave. It states
that the change in energy is directly proportional to the change in frequency,
and Planck's constant 'h' acts as the proportionality factor between the energy
and frequency difference (Δf).
2. Relationships between Phase, Frequency, Time, and
Energy:
The equation is an expression that establishes
a relationship between the time in degrees T(deg) corresponding to 1° of phase
(θ) and the frequency (f) within a given time period (T). This relationship is
valuable in signal processing and waveform analysis, helping to understand how
time, phase, and frequency interrelate within periodic signals or waveforms.
T(deg) = (1/360)⋅(1/f)
The breakdown of this equation:
• Time in Degrees T(deg): This represents the
time associated with a particular phase angle measured in degrees (°). In a
waveform or periodic signal, a complete cycle consists of 360°. Therefore, 1°
of phase corresponds to a certain amount of time within the waveform's period.
• Frequency (f): Denotes the number of cycles
or occurrences of a waveform within a given time period. It's usually measured
in hertz (Hz), representing cycles per second.
• Time Period (T): Refers to the duration it
takes for one complete cycle of the waveform to occur.
• The equation states that the time in degrees
T(deg) associated with 1° of phase is inversely proportional to the frequency
(f) of the waveform within its time period (T).
This equation essentially tells us that as the
frequency (f) increases, the time duration corresponding to each degree of
phase T(deg) decreases. Conversely, if the frequency decreases, the time
associated with each degree of phase increases.
3. Relationship between Frequency (f) and the
reciprocal of the Time Interval (Δt):
This relationship is crucial in understanding
how the frequency of a wave changes concerning the time it takes for each cycle
to occur. It's a fundamental concept in various fields such as physics, signal
processing, and electronics, offering insights into the characteristics and
behavior of waves and signals.
f = 1/Δt
• Frequency (f): It signifies the number of
occurrences or cycles of a waveform that happen in a given time. It's often
measured in hertz (Hz), where 1 Hz means one cycle per second.
• Time Interval (Δt): It represents a specific
duration of time between two events or points.
The equation demonstrates that the frequency
(f) of a periodic waveform is inversely proportional to the time interval (Δt)
between successive occurrences or cycles of that waveform. In simpler terms, as
the time interval decreases (Δt becomes smaller), the frequency increases (f
becomes larger), and vice versa. For instance, if the time interval (Δt)
between wave cycles decreases, the frequency (f) of the waveform increases.
Conversely, if the time interval (Δt) between cycles increases, the frequency
(f) decreases.
4. Derivation of Time in Degrees in Relation to
Frequency and Time Period:
The equation represents the relationship
between time in degrees T(deg), frequency (f), and time period (T) within wave
systems:
T(deg) = (1/360)⋅T
= (1/360)⋅(1/f)
= (1/360)⋅(Δt)
• T(deg): Represents the time associated with
a specific phase angle measured in degrees. It signifies the time taken for 1
degree of phase within a waveform.
• T: Denotes the time period, indicating the
duration for one complete cycle of a waveform to occur.
• f: Denotes the frequency of the waveform,
representing the number of cycles or occurrences within a given time period.
• Δt: Represents the time interval, signifying
a specific duration of time between two events or points within the waveform.
5. Relating time in degrees to the time period and
frequency.

= (1/5000000)/360
= 5.55 × 10⁻¹⁰ s.

The questions posed in the research paper are
formulated to exemplify the application of fundamental equations in wave
dynamics concerning phase shifts and frequency alterations.

frequency of the original blue wave (f) is 5 MHz, equivalent to 5×10⁶ Hz.

Solutions to the Questions:
1.
The
energy (E) of the wave f₀
in Fig-1 can be computed using the Planck equation E = h⋅f, with f = f₀. The value of
Planck's constant 'h' is known.
To calculate the
energy (E) of the wave f₀
as depicted in Fig-1 using the Planck equation E = h⋅f, we need to know the
values of both the frequency (f₀)
and Planck's constant (h). Given that f = f₀ and the Planck constant h is known, let's
proceed with the calculation.
Let's assume that the
given value for the frequency f₀
is 5 MHz (5 × 10⁶ Hz). The Planck
constant is approximately 6.626 × 10⁻³⁴ Joule seconds or 4.135 × 10⁻¹⁵ electron volts
seconds.
Using the Planck equation:
E = h⋅f
E = h⋅f₀
Given:
f₀ = 5 × 10⁶ Hz
h = 6.626 × 10⁻³⁴ Joule⋅seconds
Now, substitute the values to find the energy
(E) of the wave f₀:
E = (6.626 × 10⁻³⁴ J⋅s) × (5 × 10⁶ Hz)
E = 3.313 × 10⁻²⁷ Joules
Therefore, the energy of the wave f₀ shown in Fig-1 is
approximately 3.313 × 10⁻²⁷ Joules
2.
To
find the time shift (Δt) of the modified wave f₁ in Fig-2, utilize the equation Δt =
(1/360)⋅(1/f),
where f = f₀ = 5,000,000 Hz.
To find the time shift (Δt) of the altered
wave f₁ depicted in Fig-2, we
can use the equation:
Δt = (1/360)⋅(1/f)
Given that f = f₀ = 5 × 10⁶ Hz, let’s proceed with the
calculation:
Δt = (1/360)⋅{1/(5×10⁶)}
= 5.56 × 10¹⁰ seconds
= 556 picoseconds.
Therefore, the time shift (Δt) of the altered
wave f₁ shown in Fig-2 is 556
picoseconds.
3.
Calculate
the change in frequency (Δf) of the wave f₂ in Fig-3 using the equations Δt = (1/360)⋅(1/f) and Δf = (n) /
(360⋅Δt₁), where 'n' denotes (-360 + x°), and x° = 90.
We know that in Fig-3, the phase shift x° is
90°.
Let's start by calculating Δt₁ using the equation Δt
= (1/360)⋅(1/f) where f = f₀ = 5 MHz = 5×10⁶ Hz.
Δt₁ = (1/360)⋅{1/(5×10⁶)}
= {1/(1.8×10⁸)} seconds.
Now, calculate Δf using the equation Δf =
(n)/(360⋅Δt₁), where n = -360 + x°
= -360 + 90 = -270 degrees:
Δf = (-270)/[360⋅{1/(1.8×10⁸)}]
= (-1.35)×10⁸ Hz.
Therefore, the change in frequency Δf for the
wave f₂ shown in Fig-3 is
(-1.35)×10⁸ Hz.
Or, −135 MHz
Alternatively, (f₀ -
f₂) = {(5×10⁶) - (1.4×10⁸)} = Δf = (-1.35) × 10⁸ Hz.

The cosmological constant, initially introduced to maintain a static universe, was abandoned by Einstein when it became clear that the universe was not static but expanding. The concept for the expanding nature of the universe was not reintroduced or re-entered into his equation; rather, it fell out of favour after the expanding universe was confirmed by observational evidence.
