AI Generated Solution

To calculate the number of photons emitted per second by a 100 watt bulb emitting monochromatic light of wavelength 400 nm, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the relationship between power, energy, and time Power (P) is defined as the energy (E) emitted per unit time (t). The formula for power is: \[ P = \frac{E}{t} \] Since we want to find the number of photons emitted per second, we can express energy in terms of the number of photons. ### Step 2: Use the formula for energy of photons ...
