Dive into one of physics' greatest historical mysteries: why did the seemingly robust laws of classical physics spectacularly fail to account for the strange behavior of light and electrons in the photoelectric effect? This video explores the profound discrepancies that ultimately paved the way for the quantum revolution.

Discover the critical observations that stumped classical scientists, including:
► Classical physics incorrectly predicted that electron kinetic energy should depend on light intensity, not frequency.
► It failed to explain the existence of a threshold frequency, below which no electrons are emitted.
► The instantaneous emission of electrons, regardless of light intensity, contradicted classical expectations of delayed emission.
► Classical wave theory could not account for why increasing light intensity only increased the number of electrons, not their *individual energy*.
