A laser pulse with wavelength 520 nm contains 4.40 mj of energy. how many photons are in the laser pulse?

Physics

Vilka [71]3 years ago
3 0
Given:
λ = 520 nm = 520 x 10⁻⁹ m, the wavelength
E = 4.4 mJ = 4.4 x 10⁻³ J, energy per packet or pulse

The Planck-Einstein equation is
E = (hc)/λ
where
c = 3 x 10⁸ m/s, the velocity of light

The energy per photon is
e = fh
where 
f = c/λ = 3 x 10⁸/520 x 10⁻⁹ = 5.7692 x 10¹⁴ 1/s

The number of photons is
E/e = c/(fλ)
      = (3 x 10⁸)/[(5.7692 x 10¹⁴)*(520 x 10⁻⁹)]
      = 1

Answer:  1

A bird flies overhead from where you stand at an altitude of 270.0ĵ m and at a velocity horizontal to the ground of 14.0î m/is.
Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer:

L = 8694 Kg.m²/s

Explanation:

r = 270 ĵ m

v = 14 î m/s

m = 2.3 kg

θ = 90º

L = ?

We can apply the equation

L = m*v*r*Sin θ

L = (2.3 kg)*(14 m/s)*(270 m)*Sin 90º = 8694 Kg.m²/s

During a certain comet’s orbit around the Sun, its closest distance to the Sun is 0.6 AU, and its farthest distance from the Sun
Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

At the closest point

Explanation:

We can simply answer this question by applying Kepler's 2nd law of planetary motion.

It states that:

"A line connecting the center of the Sun to any other object orbiting around it (e.g. a comet) sweeps out equal areas in equal time intervals"

In this problem, we have a comet orbiting around the Sun:

- Its closest distance  from the Sun is 0.6 AU

- Its farthest distance from the Sun is 35 AU

In order for Kepler's 2nd law to be valid, the line connecting the center of the Sun to the comet must move slower when the comet is farther away (because the area swept out is proportional to the product of the distance and of the velocity: A\propto vr, therefore if r is larger, then v (velocity) must be lower).

On the other hand, when the the comet is closer to the Sun the line must move faster (A\propto vr, if r is smaller, v must be higher). Therefore, the comet's orbital velocity will be the largest at the closest distance to the Sun, 0.6 A.
