A helium-neon laser emits light of wavelength 632.8 nm and has a power output of 16 mw. how many photons are emitted per second
NemiM [27]
The power of the laser is
P=16 mW=0.016 W
by using the relationship between power, energy and time, we can find the energy delivered by the laser in 1 second:
E=Pt=(0.016 W)(1 s)=0.016 J

The frequency of the photons of this light is given by
f= \frac{c}{\lambda}= \frac{3\cdot 10^8 m/s}{632.8 \cdot 10^{-9} m} =4.74 \cdot 10^{14} Hz
and the energy of a single photon is
E_1=hf=(6.6\cdot 10^{-34} Js)(4.74 \cdot 10^{14} Hz)=3.13 \cdot 10^{-19} J

In order to find the number of photons emitted per second, we must divide the total energy emitted by the laser by the energy of a single photon, and we get:
N= \frac{E}{E_1}= \frac{0.016 J}{3.13 \cdot 10^{-19}J} =5.11 \cdot 10^{16} photons

What causes light to bend when it moves from one transparent medium to another?
lapo4ka [179]
Whenever light goes from transparent to another medium or from rarer to denser medium or vice versa, it's speed changes and hence light bends.

How big is the image produced by the periscope compared to the size of the object
ipn [44]

<span>As long as both mirrors are set at 45% and the same size then you see the same as is reflected in the upper mirror </span>

<span>Put a lens in the middle of the tube </span>

<span>? </span>

<span>We use mirrors when we drive cars ect </span>

<span>Normally they are set across from a concealed entrance or one that is hard to see both ways like the inside of a hairpin bend. Sometimes only to help in one direction. </span>

<span>Sonar which is sound waves that are sent out at a set rate then reflected by objects. The longer the gap between the two the further away it is, They still use periscopes to target boats though. </span>

<span>The periscope can only reflect what is outside so if you could see it because there is enough light then Yes. If you could not see it because it is dark then No unless you get into Info-Red light or Image Intensifying systems as well </span>
