Скачать или смотреть Your WIFI Passes Through WALLS But Light Can't — Feynman's Proof

Your wall swallows every photon from your kitchen lamp — every single one. But the radio signal from the next room? Passes straight through like the wall isn't even there. Both are electromagnetic waves. Both travel at the speed of light. Both obey Maxwell's equations. So why does the wall play favorites? The answer dismantles one of the most common misconceptions in physics and reveals something stunning about quantum mechanics hiding in plain sight.
In this video, we explore why different frequencies of electromagnetic radiation interact with matter in completely different ways — using the framework Feynman laid out in his legendary Caltech lectures and his public QED talks. The physics of photon absorption, electron energy levels, and resonance explains everything from why glass is see-through to why metal blocks your signal.
