Answer:
Explanation:
The energy of a photon is given by the equation , where h is the <em>Planck constant</em> and f the frequency of the photon. Thus, N photons of frequency f will give an energy of
.
We also know that frequency and wavelength are related by , so we have
, where c is the <em>speed of light</em>.
We will want the number of photons, so we can write
We need to know then how much energy do we have to calculate N. The equation of power is , so for the power we have and considering 1 second we can calculate the total energy, and then only consider the 4% of it which will produce light, or better said, the N photons, which means it will be
.
Putting this paragraph in equations:
.
And then we can substitute everything in our equation for number of photons, in S.I. and getting the values of constants from tables:
Answer:
<em>The period of the motion will still be equal to T.</em>

Explanation:
for a system with mass = M
attached to a massless spring.
If the system is set in motion with an amplitude (distance from equilibrium position) A
and has period T
The equation for the period T is given as
where k is the spring constant
If the amplitude is doubled, the distance from equilibrium position to the displacement is doubled.
Increasing the amplitude also increases the restoring force. An increase in the restoring force means the mass is now accelerated to cover more distance in the same period, so the restoring force cancels the effect of the increase in amplitude. Hence, <em>increasing the amplitude has no effect on the period of the mass and spring system.</em>
