Get started for freeA 100 W incandescent lightbulb emits about 5 W of visible light. (The other 95 W are emitted as infrared radiation or lost as heat to the surroundings.) The average wavelength of the visible light is about 600 nm, so make the simplifying assumption that all the light has this wavelength. How many visible-light photons does the bulb emit per second?
20.What is the quantum number of an electron confined in a 3.0-nm-long one-dimensional box if the electron's de Broglie wavelength is ?
In the following Figure is an energy-level diagram for a simple atom. What wavelengths, in nm, appear in the atom’s (a) emission spectrum and (b) absorption spectrum?
The first three energy levels of the fictitious element X are shown in Figure.
a. What is the ionization energy of element X?
b. What wavelengths are observed in the absorption spectrum of element X? Express your answers in nm.
c. State whether each of your wavelengths in part b corresponds to ultraviolet, visible, or infrared light.
Electrons, all with the same speed, pass through a tiny 15-nm-wide slit and create a diffraction pattern on a detector 50 mm behind the slit. What is the electron’s kinetic energy, in eV, if the central maximum has a width of 3.3 mm?
