👉 Plate-light particles, often referred to as photons or light particles, are fundamental entities that constitute electromagnetic radiation and light. These particles are massless and travel at the speed of light in a vacuum, approximately 299,792 kilometers per second. They are the quanta of the electromagnetic field, meaning they carry discrete packets of energy, known as quanta or photons. Each photon carries an energy proportional to its frequency, described by the equation E = hν, where E is energy, h is Planck's constant, and ν is the frequency of the light. Light particles are responsible for a wide range of phenomena, from the visible spectrum we see to X-rays and gamma rays, each with unique properties and applications in physics, chemistry, and technology. They exhibit both wave-like and particle-like behaviors, a duality that is central to quantum mechanics.
