11.7 Power of the sodium lamp, P = 100 W
Wavelength of the emitted sodium light, = 589 nm = 589 m
Planck’s constant, h = 6.626 Js
Speed of light, c = 3 m/s
Energy per photon associated with the sodium light is given as:
= = = 3.37 J = eV = 2.11 eV
Let the number of photon delivered to the sphere = n
The equation of power can be written as
= = photons/sec = 2.97 photons/s
Therefore, every second, 2.97 are delivered to the sphere.
Therefore, every second, 2.97 are delivered to the sp
