The threshold of dark-adapted (scotopic) vision is 4.0 × 10−11 W/m2 at a central wavelength of 500 nm. If light with this intensity and wavelength enters the eye when the pupil is open to its maximum diameter of 8.5 mm, how many photons per second enter the eye?

[Use relativistic units for this problem!] (a) What is the wavelength of the scattered photons? nm (b) What is the momentum of the incident photons? eV/c What is the momentum of the scattered photons? eV/c (c) What is the kinetic energy of the scattered electrons? eV (d) What is the momentum (magnitude and angle) of the scattered electrons? eV/c
A beam of 400 nm light is adjusted to have the same intensity as a beam of 600 nm light. How does the number of photons in the 400nm beam, N400 compare to the number of photons, N600 in the 600 nm beam. Question 5 options: N400 = 2*N600 N400 = 32600 N400 = N600 N400 = 23600 N400 = 2600 None of the other responses are correct.

One of the first signs of sunburn is the reddening of the skin (called erythema). As a very rough rule of thumb, erythema occurs if 14.0 mJ of ultraviolet light of approximately 308 nm wavelength (referred to as UVB radiation) is incident on the skin per square centimeter during a single exposure. How many photons are incident on 1.00 cm2 of skin in this amount of exposure? photons
Experiments have shown that the nervous system of the human eye effectively takes about 30 "frames" per second (like a movie camera) and that when the eye is fully dark-adapted, it needs to receive only about 500 visible photons per frame from an object to register it. Out sun radiates a power of about 3.9 x 1026W at all wavelengths, peaking in the yellow region of the spectrum (but only about one-half of this energy is in the visible range). The pupil of your dark-adapted eye has a diameter of about 8 mm. Estimate how far away a star like the sum could be and still be visible to the naked eye. The nearest visible star is about 4 ly away and most stars we see in the sky are hundreds of light years away. What does this mean for most visible stars' intrinsic brightness compared to the sun's intrinsic brightness?
