Gamma rays are photons with very high energy. How many visible-light photons with a wavelength of 500 nm would you need to equal the energy of a gamma-ray photon with energy 4.1x10^-13J
A) 1.0 × 106
B) 1.4 × 108
C) 6.2 × 109
D) 3.9 × 103
Energy of a photon = hc/λ
where h =6.62606957 × 10-34
C= speed of light = 3*10^8 m/s
and wavelength λ = 500 nm
energy of 1 photon =(6.62606957*10^-34 *3*10^8)/(500*10-9)
=3.956*10^-19 J
No of photons needed =4.1*10-13/(3.956*10^-19)=1.03*10^6
ans is A

If a 120-W lightbulb emits 25% of the input energy as visible light (average wavelength 550 nm) uniformly in all directions. Part A How many photons per second of visible light will strike the pupil (4.0 mm diameter) of the eye of an observer 1.0 m away?
Nuclear fusion reactions at the center of the sun produce gamma-ray photons with energies of order 1 MeV (106 eV). By contrast, what we see emanating from the sun's surface are visible-light photons with wavelengths of order 500 nm. A simple model that explains this difference in wavelength is that a photon undergoes Compton scattering many times - in fact, about 1026 times, as suggested by models of the solar interior - as it travels from the center of the...
