A laser pulse with wavelength 545 nm contains 4.85 mJ of energy. How many photons are in the laser pulse?

Chemistry

dusya [7]4 years ago
3 0

<u>Given</u>:

Wavelength (λ) of the laser pulse = 545 nm = 5.45 * 10⁻⁹ m

Total energy of pulse = 4.85 mJ

<u>To determine:</u>

The number of photons in the laser of a given energy

<u>Explanation:</u>

Energy per photon (E) = hc/λ

where h = planck's constant = 6.626 *10⁻³⁴ Js

C = speed of light = 3*10⁸ m/s

λ = wavelength

E = 6.626 *10⁻³⁴ Js* 3*10⁸ms-1 /5.45 * 10⁻⁹ m = 3.65 * 10⁻¹⁹ J

Now,

# photons = total energy/Energy per photon

                 =  4.85 * 10⁻³ J* 1 photon / 3.65 * 10⁻¹⁹ J = 1.32 * 10¹⁶ photons

Ans: the laser pulse contains 1.32 * 10¹⁶ photons

True or False;<br> aa is faster moving lava than pahoehoe?
frosja888 [35]

Answer:

It is false :l

Explanation:

Pahoehoe is a smooth and continuous lava crust. Pahoehoe forms when the effusion rate is low and consequently the velocity of lava flow is slow. Pahoehoe lava flow is usually at least 10 times slower than typical aa lava flow.

What do we need to learn about inclined planes
Troyanec [42]

Answer: Inclined plane, simple machine consisting of a sloping surface, used for raising heavy bodies. The force required to move an object up the incline is less than the weight being raised, discounting friction. The steeper the slope, or incline, the more nearly the required force approaches the actual weight.

suppose a student poured equal volumes of water and naoh in two different flasks. he forgets to label his flasks and is confused
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

The one with higher temperature is the one with NaOH as heatis given off during the neutralization reaction that occurs.

<h3>What is volume?</h3>

Volume can be defined as the amount of space a substance or an objects occupies usually in a closed container.

Volume is measures in litres.

When water is added to dilute acid like HCl, they become more dilute.

When NaOH is added to HCl, a neutralization reaction occurs.

The student will determine the contents of the flasks by adding 10 ml of hcl to each flask. If the NaOH reacts with the Hcl, there will be an increase in temperature.

The increase in temperature is due to the heat of neutralization of the reaction between NaOH and HCl.

The total number of atoms in the formula aluminum acetate is
REY [17]

Answer:

B) 22 atoms

Explanation:

Aluminum Acetate has a formula of C6H9AlO6, meaning that it has 6 Carbon atoms, 9 Hydrogen atoms, 1 Aluminum atom, and 6 Oxygen atoms.

In total there are: 6+9+1+6 atoms, or a total of 22 atoms.

Hope this helps!
