Chapter 3, Problem 78E
An X-ray photon of wavelength 0.989 nm strikes a surface. The emitted electron has a kinetic energy of 969 eV. What is the binding energy of the electron in kJ/mol? Hint The kinetic energy of the electron is equal to the energy of the photon (hv) minus the binding energy of the electron (Φ):
KE = hv — Φ.

- An excited atom can release some or all of its excess energy by emitting a(n) and thus move to a lower energy state.arrow_forward6.101 Laser welding is a technique in which a tightly focused laser beam is used to deposit enough energy to weld metal parts together. Because the entire process can be automated, it is commonly used in many large-scale industries, including the manufacture of automobiles. In order to achieve the desired weld quality, the steel parts being joined must absorb energy at a rate of about 104 W/mm2. (Recall that 1 W = 1 J/s.) A particular laser welding system employs a Nd:YAG laser operating at a wavelength of 1.06m ; at this wavelength steel will absorb about 80% of the incident photons. If the laser beam is focused to illuminate a circular spot with a diameter of 0.02 inch, what is the minimum power (in watts) that the laser must emit to reach the 104 W/mm2 threshold? How many photons per second does this correspond to?
