Answer:
λ = 8.88 x 10⁻⁷ m = 888 nm
Explanation:
The energy band gap is given as:
Energy Gap = E = 1.4 eV
Converting this to Joules (J)
E = (1.4 eV)(1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ J/1 eV)
E = 2.24 x 10⁻¹⁹ J
The energy required for photovoltaic generation is given as:
E = hc/λ
where,
h = Plank's Constant = 6.63 x 10⁻³⁴ J.s
c = speed of light = 3 x 10⁸ m/s
λ = wavelength of light = ?
Therefore,
2.24 x 10⁻¹⁹ J = (6.63 x 10⁻³⁴ J.s)(3 x 10⁸ m/s)/λ
λ = (6.63 x 10⁻³⁴ J.s)(3 x 10⁸ m/s)/(2.24 x 10⁻¹⁹ J)
<u>λ = 8.88 x 10⁻⁷ m = 888 nm</u>
Answer:
FORCE - rate of change of momentum, ie its changing velocity [change in velocity is of more concern] NEWTON
WORK - product of force and displacement, ie [velocity may be constant or variable but change in position with certain force is of more concern] JOULES
I hope you understood from this..
Some words that have changed meaning due to technological advances are dial, type, tweet, drone, and spam.
Gravitational potential energy=mass x height X gravitational field strength
=0.5 x1.5 x9.7(gravity)=7.275J
