Looking back at the blackbody posts, I remember that black bodies emit photons...are heat and light observations of the same thing? Or just that light can be felt as heat and humans can't see some lights? Actually, is light just "photons" and heat is atoms moving around or something, so whatever the light is from the bulb that people just happen to not be able to see is, will transfer energy to say, a human hand, to be felt as heat? Or is it just that in the case of a lightbulb, energy just gets transferred into making a lightbulb's glass move around and that is felt as heat? Or a combination @_@?

Oh, that makes more sense. Can I generalize all equations as describing an observed effect that may or may not actually happen?
