Answer:
a) What are the characteristics of the radiation emitted by a blackbody?
The total emitted energy per unit of time and per unit of area depends in its temperature (Stefan-Boltzmann law).
The peak of emission for the spectrum will be displaced to shorter wavelengths as the temperature increase (Wien’s displacement law).
The spectral density energy is related with the temperature and the wavelength (Planck’s law).
b) According to Wien's Law, how many times hotter is an object whose blackbody emission spectrum peaks in the blue, at a wave length of 450 nm, than a object whose spectrum peaks in the red, at 700 nm?
The object with the blackbody emission spectrum peak in the blue is 1.55 times hotter than the object with the blackbody emission spectrum peak in the red.
Explanation:
A blackbody is an ideal body that absorbs all the thermal radiation that hits its surface, thus becoming an excellent emitter, as these bodies express themselves without light radiation, and therefore they look black.
The radiation of a blackbody depends only on its temperature, thus being independent of its shape, material and internal constitution.
If it is study the behavior of the total energy emitted from a blackbody at different temperatures, it can be seen how as the temperature increases the energy will also increase, this energy emitted by the blackbody is known as spectral radiance and the result of the behavior described previously is Stefan's law:
(1)
Where is the Stefan-Boltzmann constant and T is the temperature.
The Wien’s displacement law establish how the peak of emission of the spectrum will be displace to shorter wavelengths as the temperature increase (inversely proportional):
(2)
Planck’s law relate the temperature with the spectral energy density (shape) of the spectrum:
(3)
b) According to Wien's Law, how many times hotter is an object whose blackbody emission spectrum peaks in the blue, at a wavelength of 450 nm, than a object whose spectrum peaks in the red, at 700 nm?
It is need it to known the temperature of both objects before doing the comparison. That can be done by means of the Wien’s displacement law.
Equation (2) can be rewrite in terms of T:
(4)
Case for the object with the blackbody emission spectrum peak in the blue:
Before replacing all the values in equation (4), (450 nm) will be express in meters:
⇒
Case for the object with the blackbody emission spectrum peak in the red:
Following the same approach above:
⇒
Comparison:
The object with the blackbody emission spectrum peak in the blue is 1.55 times hotter than the object with the blackbody emission spectrum peak in the red.
Answer:
Explanation:
The energy of a photon is given by the equation , where h is the <em>Planck constant</em> and f the frequency of the photon. Thus, N photons of frequency f will give an energy of
.
We also know that frequency and wavelength are related by , so we have
, where c is the <em>speed of light</em>.
We will want the number of photons, so we can write
We need to know then how much energy do we have to calculate N. The equation of power is , so for the power we have and considering 1 second we can calculate the total energy, and then only consider the 4% of it which will produce light, or better said, the N photons, which means it will be
.
Putting this paragraph in equations:
.
And then we can substitute everything in our equation for number of photons, in S.I. and getting the values of constants from tables:
