A LED light source contains a 0.5-Watts GaAs (Eg =1.43 eV) LED. Assuming that 0.12% of the electric energy is converted to emiss

ion. (a) Calculate the momentum of this LED source that generates electron-hole pair and the number of emitted photons per second. (b) If the spectral width of this LED is 30 nm, estimate the frequency spectral width f. (c) A receiver requires an input power of 10 nW. If all the system losses add up to 50 dB, then how much power is requires from the LED source?

Answer:

Explanation:

energy emitted by  source per second  = .5 J

Eg = 1.43 eV .

Energy converted into radiation = .5 x .12 = .06 J

energy of one photon = 1.43 eV

= 1.43 x 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ J

= 2.288 x 10⁻¹⁹ J .

no of photons generated = .06 / 2.288 x 10⁻¹⁹

= 2.6223 x 10¹⁷

wavelength of photon λ = 1275 / 1.43 nm

= 891.6 nm .

momentum of photon = h / λ  ;  h is plank's constant

= 6.6 x 10⁻³⁴ / 891.6 x 10⁻⁹

= .0074 x 10⁻²⁵ J.s

Total momentum of all the photons generated

= .0074 x 10⁻²⁵  x 2.6223 x 10¹⁷

= .0194 x 10⁻⁸ Js

b ) spectral width in terms of wavelength = 30 nm

frequency width = ?

n = c / λ  , n is frequency , c is velocity of light and λ is wavelength

differentiating both sides

dn = c x dλ / λ²

given dλ = 30 nm

λ = 891.6 nm

dn = 3 x 10⁸ x 30 x 10⁻⁹ / ( 891.6  x 10⁻⁹ )²

= 11.3 x 10¹² Hz .

c )

10 nW = 10  x 10⁻⁹ W

= 10⁻⁸ W .

energy of 50 dB

50 dB = 5 B

I / I₀ = 10⁵   ;   decibel scale is logarithmic , I is energy of sound having dB = 50 and  I₀ = 10⁻¹² W /s

I = I₀ x 10⁵

= 10⁻¹² x 10⁵

= 10⁻⁷ W

= 10 x 10⁻⁸ W

power required

= 10⁻⁸ + 10 x 10⁻⁸ W

= 11  x 10⁻⁸ W.

Which of these properties is the best measure of a star's brightness? (1 point)
storchak [24]

Answer:

ABSOLUTE MAGNITUDE, C

Explanation:

Absolute magnitude is how bright the star is from a distance of 10 parsecs. Apparent magnitude is how bright the star appears from Earth, which can vary, because some stars may be farther or closer away. Age and size are not very accurate either. For example, at the end of their lifetimes, very big start may explode in a violent and bright supernova, and outshine the stars near them. As for size, as many stars several times smaller than the sun shine much brighter than it, making it inaccurate.
