    How many times does a atom excitate when light shines onto it?

    Sorry for the very late response, but forgot about this and been busy. If you do have the patience though, could you please link me to the formula for calculating photos per second. In my book, they expect you to manipulate and use the wave formula together with the formula for wavelength energy...

    How many times does a atom excitate when light shines onto it?

    Noob question ahead. So basically I'm reading about atoms and photons in my textbook at the moment and I came across excitation and why atoms emit photos with certain wavelengths when hit by white light. The claptrap doesn't really matter, what I'm confused and curious about is how many times...
