An argon ion laser puts out 5.0 W of continuous power at a wavelength of 532 nm. The diameter of the laser beam is 5.5 mm. If th

e laser is pointed toward a pinhole with a diameter of 1.2 mm, how many photons travel through the pinhole per second? Assume that the light intensity is equally distributed throughout the entire cross-sectional area of the beam. (1 W = 1 J/s)

Answer:

Number of photons travel through pin hole=6.4*10^{17}

Explanation:

First we will calculate the energy of single photon using below formula:

E=\frac{h*c}{λ}

Where :

h is plank's constant with value 6.626*10^{-34} J.s

c is the speed of light whch is3*10^{8}

λ is the wave length = 532nm

E=\frac{6.6268*10^{-34}* 3*10^{8}}{532nm}

E=3.73*10^{-19}J

Number of photons emitted per second:

\frac{5J/s}{1 photon/3.73*10^{-19} }

Number of photons emitted per second=1.34*10^{19} photons/s

\frac{A-hole}{A-beam}=\frac{\frac{pie*d-hole^2}{4}}{\frac{pie*d-beam^2}{4} }

Where:

A-hole is area of hole

A-beam is area of beam

d-hole is diameter of hole

d-beam is diameter if beam

\frac{A-hole}{A-beam}=\frac{d-hole^2}{d-beam^2}

\frac{Ahole}{A-beam}=\frac{1.22^2}{5.5^2}

\frac{A-hole}{A-beam}=\frac{144}{3025}

Number of photons travel through pin hole=1.34*10^{19} *\frac{144}{3025}

Number of photons travel through pin hole=6.4*10^{17}

A circular loop of wire with radius 2.00 cm and resistance 0.600 Ω is in a region of a spatially uniform magnetic field B⃗ that
Anika [276]

Answer:

Incomplete questions

Let assume we are asked to find

Calculate the induced emf in the coil at any time, let say t=2

And induced current

Explanation:

Flux is given as

Φ=NAB

Where

N is number of turn, N=1

A=area=πr²

Since r=2cm=0.02

A=π(0.02)²=0.001257m²

B=magnetic field

B(t)=Bo•e−t/τ,

Where Bo=3T

τ=0.5s

B(t)=3e(−t/0.5)

B(t)=3exp(-2t)

Therefore

Φ=NAB

Φ=0.001257×3•exp(-2t)

Φ=0.00377exp(-2t)

Now,

Induce emf is given as

E= - dΦ/dt

E= - 0.00377×-2 exp(-2t)

E=0.00754exp(-2t)

At t=2

E=0.00754exp(-4)

E=0.000138V

E=0.138mV

b. Induce current

From ohms laws

V=iR

Given that R=0.6Ω

i=V/R

i=0.000138/0.6

i=0.00023A

i=0.23mA

1. Two-point charges, QA = +8 μC and QB = -5 μC, are separated by a distance r = 10 cm. What is the magnitude and direction of t
densk [106]

Answer:

F = 36 N

Explanation:

Given that,

Charge, q₁ = +8 μC

Charge, q₂ = -5 μC

The distance between the charges, r = 10 cm = 0.1 m

We need to find the magnitude of the electrostatic force. The formula for the electrostatic force is given by :

F=\dfrac{kq_1q_2}{r^2}\\\\F=\dfrac{9\times 10^9\times8\times 10^{-6}\times 5\times 10^{-6}}{(0.1)^2}\\F=36\ N

So, the magnitude of the electrostatic force is 36 N.
