Answer:
Explanation:
Part A) Using
light intensity I= P/A
A= Area= π (Radius)^2= π((0.67*10^-6m)/(2))^2= 1.12*10^-13 m^2
Radius= Diameter/2
P= power= 10*10^-3=0.01 W
light intensity I= 0.01/(1.12*10^-13)= 9*10^10 W/m^2
Part B) Using
I=c*ε*E^2/2
rearrange to solve for E=
((I*2)/(c*ε))
c is the speed of light which is 3*10^8 m/s^2
ε=permittivity of free space or dielectric constant= 8.85* 10^-12 F⋅m−1
I= the already solved light intensity= 8.85*10^10 W/m^2
amplitude of the electric field E=
(9*10^10 W/m^2)*(2) / (3*10^8 m/s^2)*(8.85* 10^-12 F⋅m−1)
---> E=
(1.8*10^11) / (2.66*10^-3) =
(6.8*10^13) = 8.25*10^6 V/m
Answer:
Minimum number of photons required is 1.35 x 10⁵
Explanation:
Given:
Wavelength of the light, λ = 850 nm = 850 x 10⁻⁹ m
Energy of one photon is given by the relation :
....(1)
Here h is Planck's constant and c is speed of light.
Let N be the minimum number of photons needed for triggering receptor.
Minimum energy required for triggering receptor, E₁ = 3.15 x 10⁻¹⁴ J
According to the problem, energy of N number of photons is equal to the energy required for triggering, that is,
E₁ = N x E
Put equation (1) in the above equation.

Substitute 3.15 x 10⁻¹⁴ J for E₁, 850 x 10⁻⁹ m for λ, 6.6 x 10⁻³⁴ J s for h and 3 x 10⁸ m/s for c in the above equation.

N = 1.35 x 10⁵
