Question

Transcribed Image Text:What was the major shortcoming in the classical prediction of
blackbody radiation that led us to the idca of quantization of light
(light treated as particles )?
A. Classical theory failed to explain radiations altogether.
B. Classical theory failed to explain the absorption of light by any
blackbody.
C. Classical theory failed to explain the emission of radiation by
any blackbody.
D. Classical theory failed to explain the experimental results of
blackbody radiation and predicted a rapid increase in the
intensity with frequency of light causing ultraviolet catastrophe.
E. None of the above.
