A monochromatic light source with power output 60.0 W radiates light of wavelength 700 nm uniformly in all directions. Calculate Emax andBmax for the 700 - nm light at a distance of 5.00 m from the source.

Short Answer

Expert verified

The values of Emaxand Bmaxare 12 V/m and4×10-8T respectively.

Step by step solution

01

Define the intensity (l) and define the formulas.

The power transported per unit area is known as the intensity (l).

The formula used to calculate the intensity (l) is:

I=PA

Where, A is area measured in the direction perpendicular to the energy and P is the power in watts.

The formula used to determine the amplitude of electric and magnetic fields of the wave are:

E2Iε0cmaxBEmaxcmax

Where, ε0=8.85×10-12C2/N⋅m2and is the speed of light that is equal to 3.0×108m/s.

02

Determine the intensity of visible-light.

Given that,

P = 60 W

r = 5 m

The formula used to calculate the intensity is:

l=PA=604Ï€52=0.19W/m2

Hence, the intensity of monochromatic light source is 0.19W/m2.

03

Determine the values of Emax and Bmax.

The amplitude of electric field is:

E2Iε0cmax

Substitute the values

Emax=2×0.198.85×10-123×108=12V/m

The amplitude of magnetic field is:

BEmaxcmax

Substitute the values

Bmax=123×108=4×10-8T

Hence, values of EmaxandBmaxare 12V/m and4×10-8T respectively.

A 5.00-A current runs through a 12-gauge copper wire (diameter

2.05 mm) and through a light bulb. Copper has8.5×108free electrons per

cubic meter. (a) How many electrons pass through the light bulb each

second? (b) What is the current density in the wire? (c) At what speed does

a typical electron pass by any given point in the wire? (d) If you were to use

wire of twice the diameter, which of the above answers would change?

Would they increase or decrease?

Why does an electric light bulb nearly always burn out just as you turn on the light, almost never while the light is shining?

Light Bulbs in Series and in Parallel. Two light bulbs have constant resistances of 400Ωand 800Ω. If the two light bulbs are connected in series across a 120Vline, find (a) the current through each bulb; (b) the power dissipated in each bulb; (c) the total power dissipated in both bulbs. The two light bulbs are now connected in parallel across the120Vline. Find (d) the current through each bulb; (e) the power dissipated in each bulb; (f) the total power dissipated in both bulbs. (g) In each situation, which of the two bulbs glows the brightest? (h) In which situation is there a greater total light output from both bulbs combined?

If you peel two strips of transparent tape off the same roll and immediately let them hang near each other, they will repel each other. If you then stick the sticky side of one to the shiny side of the other and rip them apart, they will attract each other. Give a plausible explanation, involving transfer of electrons between the strips of tape, for this sequence of events.

Point charge q1 = -5.00 nC is at the origin and point charge q2 = +3.00 nC is on the x-axis at x = 3.00 cm. Point P is on the y-axis at y = 4.00 cm. (a) Calculate the electric fieldsandat point P due to the charges q1 and q2. Express your results in terms of unit vectors (see Example 21.6). (b) Use the results of part (a) to obtain the resultant field at P, expressed in unit vector form.
