An electric bulb of 100 W converts 3% of electrical energy into light energy.If the wavelength of light emitted is 6625 Å,the number of photons emitted in 1 s is……….. (h=6.625xx10^(-34))JS

Answer»

Solution :`LAMBDA=6625Å`
`=6.625xx10^(-7)m`
`c=3xx10^(8)m//s`
ENERGY obtained from 100 W bulb in 1s=100 J
Energy converted into light energy from 3% of electric energy =3J
Now E=nhf
`E=(NHC)/(lambda) `
`thereforen=(Elambda)/(hc)`
`=(3xx6.625xx10^(-7))/(6.625x10^(-34)xx3xx10^(8))`
`therefore n=10^(19)`
