What is Planck's law?

Planck's law describes the spectral density of electromagnetic radiation emitted by a black body in thermal equilibrium at a given temperature. Essentially, it provides a formula to determine the intensity of radiation at different wavelengths for a body in thermal equilibrium. This law was crucial in addressing the ultraviolet catastrophe problem and supports the quantum theory of radiation.
