Question

An atom absorbs a photon of wavelength 500 NM and limits another Photon of wavelength 700 NM find the net energy absorbed by the atom in the process

Answer 1

Given:

Wavelength of absorbed photon, λ₁ = 500 nm

Wavelength of emitted photon, λ₂ = 700 nm

Speed of light, c = 3×10⁸ m/s

Planck's constant, h = 6.63×10⁻³⁴ Js

Energy of absorbed photon,

Energy absorbed by the atom in the process:
