Make a rough estimate of the number of quanta emitted in one second by a 100 W light bulb. Assume that the typical wavelength em

itted is λ = 1000 nm. (Note: this wavelength is in the infrared; incandescent bulbs are inefficient since they emit mostly in the infrared and only little bit in the visible range.)

Answer:

#_photon = 5 10²⁰ photons / s

Explanation:

For this exercise let's calculate the energy of a single quantum of energy, use Planck's law

         E = h f

         c= λ f

         E = h c / λ

          λ= 1000 nm (1 m / 109 nm) = 1000 10⁻⁹ m

Let's calculate

          E₀ = 6.6310⁻³⁴ 3 10⁸/1000 10⁻⁹

          E₀ = 19.89 10⁻²⁰ J

This is the energy emitted by a photon let's use a proportions rule to find the number emitted in P = 100 w

                #_photon = P / E₀

               #_photon = 100 / 19.89 10⁻²⁰

              #_photon = 5 10²⁰ photons / s

Answer:

You can do the reverse unit conversion from cm/s to m/s, or enter any two units below: Metre per second (U.S. spelling: meter per second) is an SI derived unit of both speed (scalar) and velocity (vector quantity which specifies both magnitude and a specific direction), defined by distance in metres divided by time in seconds.

For a caffeinated drink with a caffeine mass percent of 0.65% and a density of 1.00 g/mL, how many mL of the drink would be requ
slava [35]

Explanation:

First we will convert the given mass from lb to kg as follows.

        157 lb = 157 lb \times \frac{1 kg}{2.2046 lb}

                   = 71.215 kg

Now, mass of caffeine required for a person of that mass at the LD50 is as follows.

         180 \frac{mg}{kg} \times 71.215 kg

         = 12818.7 mg

Convert the % of (w/w) into % (w/v) as follows.

      0.65% (w/w) = \frac{0.65 g}{100 g}

                           = \frac{0.65 g}{(\frac{100 g}{1.0 g/ml})}

                           = \frac{0.65 g}{100 ml}

Therefore, calculate the volume which contains the amount of caffeine as follows.

   12818.7 mg = 12.8187 g = \frac{12.8187 g}{\frac{0.65 g}{100 ml}}

                       = 1972 ml

Thus, we can conclude that 1972 ml of the drink would be required to reach an LD50 of 180 mg/kg body mass if the person weighed 157 lb.
