However, if classical physics is so wide-ranging, why was it insufficient?

然而，如果经典物理的应用如此广泛，为什么还要去了解量子物理呢？

This probabilistic interpretation, now a bedrock of quantum theory, was a radical departure from deterministic classical physics.

这种概率解释现在是量子理论的基石，与确定性经典物理学截然不同。

This divergence, known as the ultraviolet catastrophe, hinted at a deep-seated flaw in classical physics.

这种被称为紫外线灾难的分歧暗示了经典物理学中的一个根深蒂固的缺陷。

Classical physics, grounded in continuous energy flows, couldn't explain why the energy radiated by a black body at different frequencies didn't match experimental observations.

以连续能量流为基础的经典物理学无法解释为什么黑体在不同频率下辐射的能量与实验观察不符。

This idea was radical; it defied the smooth, continuous worldview of classical physics and introduced a new, choppy, and quantized reality.

这个想法很激进。它挑战了经典物理学平稳、连续的世界观，并引入了一种新的、不稳定的、量子化的现实。

We'll start with classical physics and a good person to start with is Issac Newton.

我们将从古典物理学开始，艾萨克·牛顿是一个很好的起点。

His groundbreaking work on quantum theory challenged the established norms of classical physics and laid the foundation for a new era of scientific understanding.

他在量子理论方面的开创性工作挑战了经典物理学的既定规范，并为科学理解的新时代奠定了基础。

So that is all of classical physics, the picture of the Universe we had around the year 1900.

这就是全部古典物理学，即我们在 1900 年左右所看到的宇宙图景。

The laws of motion he devised became the foundation of classical physics, informing our understanding of physical phenomena on both an astronomical and a human scale.

他设计的运动定律成为经典物理学的基础，帮助我们理解天文和人类尺度的物理现象。

This quantization of energy levels was a stark departure from classical physics and marked a significant step toward a new understanding of atomic behavior.

这种能级的量子化与经典物理学截然不同，标志着对原子行为的新理解迈出了重要一步。

(Nods) In " Principia" , I presented my laws of motion and universal gravitation, which laid the groundwork for classical physics.

牛顿：（点头）在《原理》中，我提出了我的运动定律和万有引力定律，它们为经典物理学奠定了基础。

This is not due to any flaw in the measurement instrument or the technique, but it is a fundamental characteristic of the quantum world—a radical departure from the determinism of classical physics.

这并不是由于测量仪器或技术存在任何缺陷，而是量子世界的基本特征——与经典物理学的决定论的根本背离。

Yeah I like how she cultivates scientific engagement by providing a host of Do It Yourself experiments that bring the same foundational principles of classical physics that govern everything from the solar system to your kitchen table.

是的，我喜欢她通过提供一系列" 自己动手做" 的实验来培养读者的科学参与性。这些实验会介绍从控制太阳系到餐桌的相同的经典物理基本原理。
