If the detector is capturing 3.3×108 photons per second at this wavelength, what is the total energy of the photons detected in
Reil [10]

Answer:

The total energy of the photons detected in one hour is 7.04*10⁻¹¹ J

Explanation:

The energy carried by electromagnetic radiation is displaced by waves. This energy is not continuous, but is transmitted grouped into small "quanta" of energy called photons. The energy (E) carried by electromagnetic radiation can be measured in Joules (J). Frequency (ν or f) is the number of times a wave oscillates in one second and is measured in cycles / second or hertz (Hz). The frequency is directly proportional to the energy carried by a radiation, according to the equation: E = h.f, (where h is the Planck constant = 6.63 · 10⁻³⁴ J / s).

Wavelength is the minimum distance between two successive points on the wave that are in the same state of vibration. it is expressed in units of length (m). In light and other electromagnetic waves that propagate at the speed of light (c), the frequency would be equal to the speed of light (≈ 3 × 10⁸ m / s) between the wavelength :

f=\frac{speed of light}{wavelength}

So:

E=\frac{h*speed of light}{wavelength}

In this case, the wavelength is 3.35mm=3.35*10⁻³m and the energy per photon is:

E=\frac{6.63*10^{-34}*3*10^{8}}{3.35*10^{-3} }

E=5.93*10⁻²³ \frac{J}{proton}

The detector is capturing  3.3*10⁸ photons per second. So, in 1 hour:

E=5.93*10^{-23} \frac{J}{proton} *3.3*10^{8} \frac{proton}{s} *\frac{60}{1} \frac{s}{minute} *\frac{60}{1} \frac{minute}{hr}

E=7.04*10⁻¹¹ \frac{J}{hr}

The total energy of the photons detected in one hour is 7.04*10⁻¹¹ J

A chunk of copper has a volume of 1.45 mL and a mass of 12.93 grams. What is the density of the chunk of copper?
natta225 [31]

Answer:

Density = 8.92 \ g/mL

Explanation:

The equation for density is:

Density = \frac{mass}{volume}

We plug in the given values:

Density = \frac{12.93 \ g}{1.45 \ mL}

Density = 8.92 \ g/mL

Pavel [41]

Answer:

<em>Protons: </em>

  • Positively charged particle
  • The number of these is the atomic number
  • All atoms of a given element have the same number of these

<em>Neutrons:  </em>

  • Neutral particles  
  • Isotopes of a given element differ in the number of these
  • The mass number is the number of these added to the number of protons

Explanation:

Protons (<em>positively charged</em>), neutrons (<em>neutral</em>) and electrons (negatively charged) are smaller than an atom and they are the main subatomic particles.  The nucleus of an atom is composed of protons and neutrons, and the electrons are in the periphery at unknown pathways.

The <em>Atomic number</em> (Z) indicates the number of protons (P^{+}) in the nucleus. Every atom of an element have the <em>same atomic number</em>, thus the <em>same number of protons</em>.

The <em>mass number </em>(A) is the sum of the <em>number of protons</em>  (P^{+}) <em>and neutrons</em> (N) that are present in the nucleus: <em>A= Z + N</em>

<em>Isotopes</em> are atoms of the <em>same element </em>which nucleus have the <em>same atomic number</em> (Z), and <em>different mass number (A)</em>, it means the <em>same number of protons</em> (P^{+}) and a <em>different number of neutrons</em> (N). For example, the oxygen in its natural state is a mixture of isotopes:

99.8% atoms with A= 16, Z=8, and N=8

0.037% atoms with A=17, Z=8, and N=9

0.204% atoms with A=18, Z=8, and N=10
