How many photons will be required to raise the temperature of 1.8 g of water by 2.5 k ?'?
tatyana61 [14]
Missing part in the text of the problem: 
"<span>Water is exposed to infrared radiation of wavelength 3.0×10^−6 m"</span>

First we can calculate the amount of energy needed to raise the temperature of the water, which is given by
Q=m C_s \Delta T
where
m=1.8 g is the mass of the water
C_s = 4.18 J/(g K) is the specific heat capacity of the water
\Delta T=2.5 K is the increase in temperature.

Substituting the data, we find
Q=(1.8 g)(4.18 J/(gK))(2.5 K)=18.8 J=E

We know that each photon carries an energy of
E_1 = hf
where h is the Planck constant and f the frequency of the photon. Using the wavelength, we can find the photon frequency:
\lambda =  \frac{c}{f}= \frac{3 \cdot 10^8 m/s}{3 \cdot 10^{-6} m}=1 \cdot 10^{14}Hz

So, the energy of a single photon of this frequency is
E_1 = hf =(6.6 \cdot 10^{-34} J)(1 \cdot 10^{14} Hz)=6.6 \cdot 10^{-20} J

and the number of photons needed is the total energy needed divided by the energy of a single photon:
N= \frac{E}{E_1}= \frac{18.8 J}{6.6 \cdot 10^{-20} J} =2.84 \cdot 10^{20} photons

a bullet moving with a velocity of 100m/s pierce a block of wood and moves out with a velocityof 10 m/s.if the thickness of the
erma4kov [3.2K]

The emerging velocity of the bullet is <u>71 m/s.</u>

The bullet of mass <em>m</em> moving with a velocity <em>u</em>  has kinetic energy. When it pierces the block of wood, the block exerts a force of friction on the bullet. As the bullet passes through the block, work is done against the resistive forces exerted on the bullet by the block. This results in the reduction of the bullet's kinetic energy. The bullet has a speed <em>v</em> when it emerges from the block.

If the block exerts a resistive force <em>F</em> on the bullet and the thickness of the block is <em>x</em> then, the work done by the resistive force is given by,

W=Fx

This is equal to the change in the bullet's kinetic energy.

W=Fx=\frac{1}{2} m(u^2-v^2)......(1)

If the thickness of the block is reduced by one-half, the bullet emerges out with a velocity v<em>₁.</em>

Assuming the same resistive forces to act on the bullet,

F(\frac{x}{2} )=\frac{1}{2} m(u^2-v_1^2)......(2)

Divide equation (2) by equation (1) and simplify for v<em>₁.</em>

\frac{\frac{Fx}{2} }{Fx} =\frac{(u^2-v_1^2)}{(u^2-v^2)} \\\frac{100^2-v_1^2}{100^2-10^2} =\frac{1}{2} \\v_1^2=5050\\v_1=71.06 m/s

Thus the speed of the bullet is 71 m/s

A total charge of 9.0 mC passes through a cross-sectional area of a nichrome wire in 3.6s. The number of electrons passing throu
Setler79 [48]
<h2>Given :</h2>

  • total charge = 9.0 mC = 0.009 C

Each electron has a charge of :

1.6 \times 10 {}^{ - 19} \:  C

For producing 1 Cuolomb charge we need :

  • \mathrm{\dfrac{1}{1.6 \times 10 {}^{ - 19} } }

  • \dfrac{10 {}^{19} }{1.6}

  • \dfrac{10\times 10 {}^{19} }{16}

  • \dfrac{100 \times 10 {}^{18} }{16}

  • \mathrm{6.24 \times 10 {}^{18}  \:  \: electrons}

Now, for producing 0.009 C of charge, the number of electrons required is :

  • 0.009 \times 6.24 \times  {10}^{18}

  • 0.05616 \times 10 {}^{18}

  • \mathrm{5.616 \times 10 {}^{16}  \:  \: electons}

_____________________________

So, Number of electrons passing through the cross section in 3.6 seconds is :

\mathrm{5.616 \times 10 {}^{16} \:  \: electrons}

Number of electrons passing through it in 1 Second is :

  • \dfrac{5.616 \times  {10}^{16} }{3.6}

  • \mathrm{1.56 \times 10 {}^{16}  \:  \: electrons}

Now, in 10 seconds the number of electrons passing through it is :

  • 10 \times  \mathrm{1.56 \times 10 {}^{16}  \:  \: }

  • \mathrm{1.56 \times 10 {}^{17}  \:  \: electrons}
