Quantum Physics for KidsAuthor: Subatomic Tanvi
Tanvi Gopalan is a 11 year old member of American Mensa who loves Quantum Physics. She teaches all about quantum physics in a fun and simple way. Quantum physics is the study of the smallest things in the universe, and it's one of the most fascinating and important branches of science. But it can also be very confusing, especially for kids. In this podcast, Tanvi explains complex concepts like entanglement, superposition, uncertainty principle and a lot more, in a way that anyone can understand. So whether you're a kid, a parent, or just someone curious about quantum physics, subscribe NOW! Language: en Contact email: Get it Feed URL: Get it iTunes ID: Get it |

The Quantum Contradiction: Why Niels Bohr’s Model Breaks the Laws of Physics
Episode 33
Sunday, 15 February, 2026
Dive into the microscopic world with Subatomic Tanvi as she unpacks the fascinating (and slightly confusing) evolution of the atomic model. In this episode, Tanvi explores the leap from JJ Thomson’s "Plum Pudding" theory to the iconic Bohr Model of 1913, clarifying once and for all that "electron shells" have nothing to do with seashells or turtles. While the Bohr Model revolutionized our understanding of energy levels, Tanvi reveals the catch: it’s technically a "successful failure" that violates Heisenberg’s Uncertainty Principle and only truly works for hydrogen. Whether you're here for the high-level quantum mechanics or just want to know where to buy some subatomic pudding, this episode perfectly balances scientific history with the quirky contradictions of the quantum realm.
