Ah that sounds perfect for what I need, is this De Broglie's wavelength?

If its possible do you think you would be able to explain it simply, my knowledge on quantum isn't too brilliant. I know planck's constant shows the ratio between the energy of particles and the frequency at which they vibrate, as well as an effect on the energy levels of particles, apart from that I'm not too sure on the science.

Hi, I had a look and understand that he reduces the units to simple constants, but the actual maths goes over my head! I’ve decided to use two systems, a photon and a hydrogen atom and then perhaps talk about the effect this will have as a whole on the universe, extrapolating from the two simple systems. Id just need a simplified explanation on what would actually occur, if that’s okay. Thank you this is definitely worth a look, do you know the science behind this by any chance? Thank you this will certainly be of use.

Thanks, I've had a look. I was wondering if in the hypothetical situation that we consider changing Planck's constant for a photon: with the equation E=hv, we know that h=E/v, therefore by changing h to a larger value we would be either increasing the energy or decreasing the frequency of the photon, if this is true, then if we are increasing the energy of the photon would that mean we would also be increasing the mass of the photon, as energy and mass are interchangeable? As well as this, does PC only apply to photons when considering it as the ratio of energy of the particle to frequency or could it apply to electrons as well? many thanks and sorry if this is too many questions

Hi, I'm a sixteen year old from the UK who is studying physics and hoping to do it at uni, recently I entered an essay competition with the topic being on physical constants, their effects on everyday life and what would happen should they be changed. I have chosen to do Planck's constant as quantum physics is something that interests me and I have seen it mentioned recently in news due to it replacing the IPK. However I am a bit out of my depth mathematically, and with no clear answer was wondering whether I could get peoples opinions on what they think would happen should Planck's constant be changed and how it will affect everyday life. Thanks.
