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.

A cylinder of mass 250 kg and radius 2.60 m is rotating at 4.00 rad/s on a frictionless.
aleksandrvk [35]

Answer:

The angular momentum of a cylinder, when it is rotating with constant angular velocity is Lini =Iωi

. When two cylinders are added to the rotating cylinder, which are identical in their dimensions, the moment of inertia of the entire system increases (since mass increases). The final moment of inertia will be 3I

Since friction exist, all the cylinders start rotating with same angular velocity, the new angular velocity can be calculated using conservation of angular momentum

Thus, Iωi =3Iωf ⟹ωf =ωi/3 = 0.33ωi

Use Hooke's Law to determine the variable force in the spring problem. A force of 450 newtons stretches a spring 30 centimeters.
ladessa [460]

Answer:

Work Done = 67.5 J

Explanation:

First we find the value of spring constant (k) using Hooke's Law. Hooke's is formulated as:

F = kx

where,

F = Force Applied = 450 N

k = Spring Constant = ?

x = Stretched Length = 30 cm = 0.3 m

Therefore,

450 N = k(0.3 m)

k = 450 N/0.3 m

k = 1500 N/m

Now, the formula for the work done in stretching the spring is given as:

W = (1/2)kx²

Where,

W = Work done = ?

k = 1500 N/m

x = 70 cm - 40 cm = 0.3 m

Therefore,

W = (1/2)(1500 N/m)(0.3 m)²

<u>W = 67.5 J</u>
