Energy transferred per second in given area:
8000 x 3.9 / 10000
Energy transferred = 3.12 J
Using Planck's equation:
E = nhc/λ
n = (3.12 x 510 x 10⁻⁹) / (3 x 10⁸ x 6.63 x 10⁻³⁴)
n = 8 x 10¹⁸ photons
Answer:
Lowering the object near the ground decreases its <u>potential energy.</u>
<u></u>
Explanation:
Potential Energy : Energy possessed by the object due to its shape ,Size and Position is called potential energy.
Example :
Change in shape and size : When you compress the spring , potential energy is introduced in it . So it expand quickly when you remove your hand.
Change in position : when you swing , after attaining maximum height (extreme ends) , the swing comes back on its on .This is because at maximum height ,the swing has<u> maximum Potential energy . </u>Hence it fall back on its on because it already has potential energy.
Potential energy(P) is given by the formula :
P = mgh
where ,
m= mass of the object
g = acceleration due to gravity
h = height of the object from the ground
If the height of the object increases from the ground , its potential energy also get increase.
<u><em>On lowering the object The height of the object from the ground reduces . So potential energy also reduces.</em></u>
