Let `(n_r) and (n_b)` be respectively the number of photons emitted by a red bulb and a blue blub of equal power in a given time.

A

(a)`n_(r) = n_(b)`

B

(b)`n_(r) lt n_(b)`

C

(c)`n_(r) gt n_(b)`

D

(d)data in insufficient

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

`P_(r)=(n_(r)hc)/lambda_(r), P_(b)=(n_(b)hc)/lambda_(b)`
if `P_(r)=P_(b)` Since `lambda_(r) gt lambda_(b) implies n_(r) gt n_(b)`

Estimating the following two numbers should be interesting. The first number will tell you why radio engineers do not need to worry much about photons! The second number tells you why our eye can never ‘count photons’, even in barely detectable light. (a) The number of photons emitted per second by a Medium wave transmitter of 10 kW power, emitting radiowaves of wavelength 500 m. (b) The number of photons entering the pupil of our eye per second corresponding to the minimum intensity of white light that we humans can perceive (~10^(-10) W m^(-2)) . Take the area of the pupil to be about 0.4 cm2 , and the average frequency of white light to be about 6 xx 10^(14) Hz

Let n_1, and n_2 , be the number of red and black balls, respectively, in box I. Let n_3 and n_4 ,be the number one red and b of red and black balls, respectively, in box II. A ball is drawn at random from box 1 and transferred to box II. If the probability of drawing a red ball from box I, after this transfer, is 1/3 then the correct option(s) with the possible values of n_1 and n_2 , is(are)

Let n_1, and n_2 , be the number of red and black balls, respectively, in box I. Let n_3 and n_4 ,be the number one red and b of red and black balls, respectively, in box II. One of the two boxes, box I and box II, was selected at random and a ball was drawn randomly out of this box. The ball was found to be red. If the probablity that this red ball was drawn from box II is 1/3 then the correct option(s) with the possible values of n_1, n_2, n_3, and n_4 , is(are)
