A discharge lamp rated at 25 W (1 W = 1 J/s) emits yellow light of wavelength 580 nm. How many photons of yellow light does the

lamp generate in 1.0 s?

Scrat [10]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

the number of photons of yellow light does the lamp generate in 1.0 s is 7 x 10^{19}

Explanation:

given information:

power, P = 25 W

wavelength. λ - 580 nm = 5.80 x 10^{-7} m

time, t = 1 s

to calculate the number of photon(N), we use the following equation

N = λPt/hc

where

λ = wavelength (m)

P = power (W)

t = time interval (s)

h = Planck's constant (6.23 x 10^{-34} Js)

c = light's velocity (3 x 10^{8} m/s^{2})

So,

N = λPt/hc

   = (5.80 x 10^{-7})(25)(1)/(6.23 x 10^{-34})(3 x 10^{8} m/s^{2})

    = 7 x 10^{19}

What is the weight of an astronaut who has a mass of 90 kg on the moon? (Note: acceleration due to gravity of the moon is 1.62 N
motikmotik

Answer:

W = 145.8 [N]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must remember that weight is defined as the product of mass by gravity, in this case lunar gravity.

W = m*g

where:

m = mass = 90 [kg]

g = gravity acceleration = 1.62 [kg/m²]

W = 90*1.62

W = 145.8 [N]

Radio waves are readily diffracted around buildings, whereas light waves are negligibly diffracted around buildings. This is bec
Tom [10]

Answer:

Radio waves have longer wavelength

Explanation:

Radio wave is an electromagnetic frequency that has the ability to travel through long distance. They have frequencies shuttling been the range of 10^4 hz and a frequency of 10^12 hz

Light wave is also called visible light. This is because it is visible to the naked eye, despite it being in the electromagnetic spectrum. It's frequency is usually between 4*10^-7 hz and a frequency of 7*10^-7 hz.

As can be seen from both, the radio waves length are quite far stronger than that of the light waves.

A box of mass 12 kg is at rest on a flat floor. The coefficient of static friction between the box and floor is 0.42. What is th
Oxana [17]
The maximum static force that can be applied is equal to the normal force*the frictional force. the normal force on the box is equal to mg since the floor is flat using 9.81m/s^2 for gravity 12kg*9.81m/s^2 = 118N multiplying the normal force by the frictional force you get a 118*.42= 49.6N so overcome the force of static friction on the box a minimum of 49.6N would need to be applied.
