प्रश्न
A 150 W lamp emits light of the mean wavelength of 5500 Å. If the efficiency is 12%, find out the number of photons emitted by the lamp in one second.
उत्तर
P = 150 W
λ = 5500 × 10−10 m
Efficiency = 12%
N = `("P"λ)/"hc"`
= `(150 xx 5500 xx 10^-10)/(6.626 xx 10^-34 xx 3 xx 10^8)`
= `(825 xx 10^-7)/(19.878 xx 10^-26)`
= 41.5 × 1019
Number of photons emitted is with 12% efficiency = `41.5 xx 10^19 xx 12/100`
N = 4.98 × 1019

Would you prefer a material with a high work-function or a low work-function to be used as a cathode in a diode?
A diode value is connected to a battery and a load resistance. The filament is heated, so that a constant current is obtained in the circuit. As the cathode continuously emits electrons, does it become more and more positively charged?
Why does thermionic emission not take place in non-conductors?
The cathode of a diode valve is replaced by another cathode of double the surface area. Keeping the voltage and temperature conditions the same, will the place current decrease, increase or remain the same?
