    What is the energy of a 0.07078nm photon?

    okay. Do I need to use 4 sig figs for all the values? I'm getting 17514.8 now. It's too low.

    What is the energy of a 0.07078nm photon?

    Homework Statement Calculate energy of a 0.07078nm photon Homework Equations E = hc / lamda The Attempt at a Solution (6.63x10E-34)(3.0x10E8) / (7.078x10E-11)(1.60x10E-19) =17563.2 eV But the correct answer is 17520

    How many 420nm photons are emitted per second by an LED with a power of 10 mW?

    1.9878E-25/4.2E-7 = 4.7328E-19 (10x10E-3) / (4.7328E-19) = 2.1E16 Thank You!

    How many 420nm photons are emitted per second by an LED with a power of 10 mW?

    okay. (6.626x10E-34)(3.0x10E8)=1.9878E-25 / 420nm = 4.7328E-28 (10x10E-3) / (4.7328E-28) = 2.1129E25 This is still not 2.1E16

    Undergrad Physics in Honey I Shrunk the Kids

    So, we'll say the kids were shrunk by a factor of 200. What about vision affects? For example, at a distance of 1.0 m from a child, how far apart would 2 point sources of light have to be, to be resolvable (this is the sharpness of the kids vision)? Wouldn't the resolution be too low for the...

    Proton Motion in Electric Field

    Homework Statement 2 large metal sheets are separated by a potential of 40 volts by a vaccum. When the proton particle (mass 1.67x10e-27 kg)is released close to the (+) sheet it moves closer to the (-) sheet by way of electric field. What's the KE right before the proton smacks the other...
