It is possible to convert radiant energy into electrical energy using photovoltaic cells. Assuming equal efficiency of conversio

n, would infrared or ultraviolet radiation yield more electrical energy on a per-photon basis?

Answer:

Ultraviolet radiation would yield more electrical energy

Explanation:

The reason for the ultraviolet to generate more energy is that there would be getting more electrons per unit of time the photovoltaic cell, due to the higher frequency of the ultraviolet in comparison with the infrared radiation.

The infrared spectrum goes from 300 GHz (10^9 Hertz) to 400 THz or (10^12 Hertz).

The ultraviolet spectrum goes from 800 THz to 30.000 THz or (10^12 Hertz). This kind of radiation is responsible for skin burn from the sun and it´s the “ most usable” part from the sunlight in a photovoltaic cell.

What is the role of equations in this course?
Karolina [17]
That will depend on which course you're talking about. It will be a minor role in, say, Maritime Law or Comparitive Religion, but a major one in, say, Particle Physics or Linear Algebra.

In the bohr model, what is the ratio of its kinetic energy to its potential energy?
stich3 [128]

The centrifugal force C = mv^2/r = kq^2/r^2 = P centripetal force. m is the electron mass, q are the proton and electron charges (opposites), and r is the Bohr radius.

Thus 1/2 mv^2/r = 1/2 kq^2/r^2 and KE = 1/2 mv^2 = 1/2 kq^2/r = 1/2 PE

Therefore KE/PE = 1/2, no matter what state the electron is in.

Yuri [45]
P=W/t

P=Power
W=Work
t=Time

Convert 16 minutes in seconds:
16 mins = 960 secs

P=6720/960=7.23 W [Watt]
