Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To calculate the number of photons emitted per second by a 10 W sodium vapor lamp, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Calculate the useful energy converted into light The lamp consumes 10 W of power, but only 60% of this energy is converted into light. \[ \text{Useful Energy} = \text{Total Power} \times \text{Efficiency} \] ...
