Dear forum members,
I would like to ask some help regarding irradiance calculation. I am a high school student doing a project in biology in which I expose drosophila m. (fruit flies) to UVA radiation and I would like to mention in my paper the actual dose that was used.
I know that... UV...
[Solved] Optics - Double Slit Irradiance of Fringes
Homework Statement
A double slit diffraction pattern is formed using mercury green light at 546.1nm. Each slit has a width of 0.100mm (= b), slit separation is 0.400mm (=a). The pattern reveals that the fourth-order interference maxima are...
hello.
I am working to understand and design a UV sanitization device.
What is a good resource to learn about irradiance and its relation to distance from a surface.
Secondly, in real life, how is irradiance measured? Given a surface area, I would need to specify bulbs of certain...
I am still a high school student and I want to do an experiment on a solar panel. I want filter out red light and then focus is it onto a solar panel and measure various intensities and how it relates to the variation of power output from the solar panel.
For this I suppose I should measure the...
Alright, I'm new to the forum, and I've got to say, it is quite impressive. Okay, my question: How do I convert radiant power (uW/10nm/Lumens) to W/m^2? I am conducting a simulated solar radiation test. I need to know the spectral power distribution of a certain metal hallide bulb. The...
A solar flare releases 10^25 Joules of energy in one hour over an area amounting to 1% of the area of the Sun’s disk (radius 6.96 x 10^5 km).
(a) Calculate the Solar irradiance in W m-2 associated with this flare.
(b) Compare this with the black body radiation emitted by the Sun assuming...
