C. The WAVElength is the measurement of how far one WAVE is. Remember to think of a wave in physics as one complete cycle, which is a full motion hitting the crest and the trough. It can be measured by the crests, the troughs, or the origin. Just make sure if you're doing it at the origin that you're counting one FULL cycle.

A typical 100-watt light bulb consumes 100 j of energy per second. If a light bulb converts all of this energy to 400 nm light

VladimirAG [237]

The missing question is: how many photons are produced per second?

Answer:

$2.0\cdot 10^{20}$

Explanation:

The energy of a photon is given by

$E_1 = \frac{hc}{\lambda}$

where

h is the Planck constant

c is the speed of light

$\lambda$ is the wavelength of the photon

In this problem, the photons have wavelength

$\lambda = 400 nm = 400 \cdot 10^{-9} m$ , so each photon has an energy of

$E_1 = \frac{(6.63\cdot 10^{-34})(3\cdot 10^8)}{400\cdot 10^{-9}}=4.97\cdot 10^{-19} J$

The total energy emitted by the bulb in 1 second is

E = 100 J

Therefore, the number of photons emitted per second is

$n=\frac{E}{E_1}=\frac{100}{4.97\cdot 10^{-19}}=2.0\cdot 10^{20}$

Explanation:

Total surface area of cylinder:

$2\pi \times r(h + r) \\ 2 \times \pi \times 3.5(3.5 + 2) \\ 2\pi \times 19.25 = 120.951317 \\ 120.95 \: {cm}^{2}$

sheet of metal required = 120.95 cm^2
