A certain atom has an energy state 3.50 eV above the ground state. When excited to this state, the atom remains for 2.0 ms, on average, before it emits a photon and returns to the ground state. (a) What are the energy and wavelength of the photon

Respuesta :

Answer:

[tex]\lambda=3451*10^{10}m[/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Energy state [tex]e=3.50 eV[/tex]

Time [tex]t=2ms[/tex]

Generally the equation for energy of Photon is mathematically given by

[tex]E=e-e_0[/tex]

[tex]E=3.6*10^{-19}J[/tex]

[tex]E=5.7*10^{-19}J[/tex]

Generally the equation for Wave-length of Photon is mathematically given by

[tex]\lambda=\frac{hc}{E}[/tex]

[tex]\lambda=\frac{6.626*10^{-34}*3*10^8}{5.76*10^{-19}}[/tex]

[tex]\lambda=3451*10^{10}m[/tex]
