Planck's physics
The wiki page on Planck's physics is tagged to say that it is too technical. The editor should take a course in study technology, i.e. overcoming the three barriers to study as per Hubbard. The misunderstood word is an obvious starting point for someone not versed in physics, especially quantum mechanics. Fortunately the author of the Planck article left all the definitions at the bottom of the page. Perhaps it would be useful for all the definitions to be placed at the top of the page and the bottom of the page. This would hopefully stop readers falling asleep in the first paragraph, after encountering their first misunderstood word on the page. Too many misunderstood words, or symbols, cause people to give up studying entirely. Another of the barriers is lack of mass concerning the subject matter. With regard to Planck one can see a picture of the mathematician, and one can see a clock or a stop-watch, but it difficult to visualise a billionth of a second. It is easier to have a concept of the mass of the earth, but more difficult to conceive of the mass of a black hole. The solution is to hold something heavy, and get the concept that a golf ball can contain all that weight and hence mass. How about a grain of sugar having the mass of the whole earth? More difficult but a possible help in finding some mass to clear the concept of a very dense dead star, or the beginning of the universe at the moment of the big bang. The point is that it is possible to overcome the barriers to studying. Skipped gradient is a common event in reading technical articles, and leads to confusion. The solution is to go back to a point where one was not confused, then proceed by smaller steps. In the case of Planck, look for misunderstood words and symbols earlier in the text. Which takes me back to where I began; put the definitions at the beginning and the end of the articles. ````
