Sunlight has its maximum intensity at a wavelength of 4.83 x 10'm; wha energy does this correspond to in e?

E = 2,575 eV

Explanation:

For this exercise we will use the Planck equation and the relationship of the speed of light with the frequency and wavelength

E = h f

c = λ f

Where the Planck constant has a value of 6.63 10⁻³⁴ J s

Let's replace

E = h c / λ

Let's calculate for wavelengths

λ = 4.83 10-7 m (blue)

E = 6.63 10⁻³⁴ 3 10⁸ / 4.83 10⁻⁷

E = 4.12 10-19 J

The transformation from J to eV is 1 eV = 1.6 10⁻¹⁹ J

E = 4.12 10⁻¹⁹ J (1 eV / 1.6 10⁻¹⁹ J)

E = 2,575 eV
