wavelength 1260 nm, its emissive power being 8000W/m2. When the body is cooled to a
temperature T K, the emissive power is found to decrease to 500W/m2. Find :

You have two lightbulbs of different power and color, as indicated in (Figure 1). One is a 150-WW red bulb, and the other is a 40-WW blue bulb.
Which bulb emits more photons per second?
Which bulb emits photons of higher energy?
Calculate the number of photons emitted per second by each bulb. Take λred=640nm�red=640nm and λblue=430nm�blue=430nm. (Most of the electromagnetic radiation given off by incandescent lightbulbs is in the infrared portion of the spectrum. For the purposes of this problem, however, assume that all of the radiated power is at the wavelengths indicated.)

- n = 5 n = 4 3. Refer to the illustration on the right. In a set of experiments on a hypothetical one-electron atom, you measure the wavelengths of the photons emitted from transitions ending in the ground state (n=1). You also observe that it takes 15 eV to ionize this atom. (a) What is the energy of the atom in each of the levels (i.e. n=1, n=2, n=3, n=4, n=5)?

- Calculate the wavelength of a photon emitted when singly ionized helium (He+) transitions from the n = 3 to n = 2 state. The emitted photon has a wavelength of 0.164 nm. A photon is emitted when doubly ionized helium (He++) recombines with an electron to form He+ in the n = 2 state. How does the wavelength of the resulting photon compare to the answer from the previous problem? A. The wavelength is longer in this case because the change in energy (ΔE) is smaller. B. The wavelength is shorter in this case because the change in energy (ΔE) is smaller. C. The wavelength is longer in this case because the change in energy (ΔE) is greater. D. The wavelength is shorter in this case because the change in energy (ΔE) is greater. E.
