A 100-watt light bulb radiates energy at a rate of 100 J/s. (The watt, a unit of power or energy over time, is defined as 1 J/s.

) If all of the light emitted has a wavelength of 525nm, how many photons are emitted per second?

Answer:

2.64\times 10^{20} The number of photons emitted each second is

Explanation:

Let 'n' stand for the quantity of photons released by the bulb.

Provided Information:

The bulb radiates energy at a rate of 100 J per second (E).

Wavelength of emitted light is (λ) = 525 nm = 525\times 10^{-9}\ m

The energy of a photon is calculated by:

Where,

E_0=\frac{hc}{\lambda}

Now, if we have 'n' photons, the total energy is equivalent to the energy of a single photon multiplied by the count of photons. Thus,

h\to Planck's\ constant=6.626\times 10^{-34}\ Js\\\\c\to Speed\ of \ light=3\times 10^{8}\ m/s

To express in terms of 'n', we find:

E=nE_0\\\\E=\frac{nhc}{\lambda}

Insert the provided values and solve for 'n'. The resulting calculation yields

n=\frac{E\lambda}{hc}

Consequently,

photons are discharged every second.n=\frac{100\times 525\times 10^{-9}}{6.626\times 10^{-34}\times 3\times 10^{8}}\\\\n=2.64\times 10^{20}

2.64\times 10^{20}

Two electrodes, separated by a distance d, in a vacuum are maintained at a constant potential difference. An electron, accelerat
Yuliya22 [3333]

Answer:

Explanation:

The distance between the electrodes is denoted as d.

The kinetic energy of the electron is represented as Ek when the electrodes are positioned at a distance of "d" apart.

Our goal is to determine the kinetic energy when they are separated by a distance of d/3.

K.E = ½mv²

It’s important to note that the mass remains constant; only velocity varies.

Additionally,

K.E = Work done by the electron

K.E = F × d

K.E = W = ma × d

Assuming constant acceleration

Hence, m and a are fixed,

therefore,

K.E is directly related to d

Thus, as d increases, K.E increases, and conversely, when d decreases, K.E decreases.

Consequently,

K.E_1 / d_1 = K.E_2 / d_2

With K.E_1 equating to E_k

and d_1 being d

while d_2 is represented as d/3

This leads to K.E_2 = K.E_1 / d_1 × d_2

Thus, K.E_2 = E_k × ⅓d / d

Finally,

K.E_2 = ⅓E_k

Therefore, the resultant kinetic energy is one third of the original E_k

In an isolated system, the total heat given off by warmer substances equals the total heat energy gained by cooler substances. N
Keith_Richards [3271]

Answer:

The temperature of the cooler object was nearly at room temperature. As a result, the system underwent minimal change

Explanation:

In a closed system with two objects at varying temperatures, heat energy typically flows from the hotter object to the cooler one. This transfer is more pronounced when there is a significant temperature disparity between the objects. Conversely, if the temperature difference is minor or negligible, the resulting change will be minimal.

A rocket starts from rest and moves upward from the surface of the earth. for the first 10.0 s of its motion, the vertical accel
kicyunya [3294]

The rocket's acceleration is described here as

a_y = 2.60* t

now recognizing that

\frac{dv}{dt} = 2.60t

we integrate both sides

\int dv = \int 2.60t dt

v = 2.60\frac{t^2}{2}

v = 1.30 t^2

given that the rocket is accelerating for a duration of t = 10 s

thus, we have

v = 1.30 * 10^2

v = 130 m/s

consequently, after t = 10 s, the rocket will achieve a speed of 130 m/s in an upward direction

A car drives 215 km east and then 45 km north. What is the magnitude of the car’s displacement? Round your answer to the nearest
Ostrovityanka [3204]
The Pythagorean Theorem can be utilized here: Imagine a car navigating through traffic—when it turns left to travel north, a right angle of 90 degrees is formed. However, the displacement is always the shortest distance connecting the origin and the endpoint, which forms a triangle in this scenario. In a right triangle, the Pythagorean theorem applies: 215^2+45^2=c^2; therefore, v=√(215^2+45^2).
