All the tools & learning materials you need for study success - in one app.
Get started for freeYou need to design a photodetector that can respond to the entire range of visible light. What is the maximum possible work function of the cathode?
A 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?
What is the length of a one-dimensional box in which an electron in the state has the same energy as a photon with a wavelength of ?
a. What wavelength photon does a hydrogen atom emit in a transition?
b. What is the difference in the wavelengths emitted in a localid="1650823513478" transition and a transition?
The charge on a muon-a subatomic particle is -e and its mass 207 times that of an electron-
which is confined in a 15-pm-long, one-dimensional box.
(1 pm = 1 picometer = 10-12 m.)
