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

Let i0 be the thermionic current from a metal surface when the absolute temperature of the surface is T0. The temperature is slowly increased and the thermionic current is measured as a function of temperature. Which of the following plots may represent the variation in (i/i0) against (T/T0)?
The constant A in the Richardson−Dushman equation for tungsten is 60 × 104 A m−2K−2. The work function of tungsten is 4.5 eV. A tungsten cathode with a surface area 2.0 × 10−5 m2 is heated by a 24 W electric heater. In steady state, the heat radiated by the heater and the cathode equals the energy input by the heater and the temperature becomes constant. Assuming that the cathode radiates like a blackbody, calculate the saturation current due to thermions. Take Stefan's Constant = 6 × 10−8 W m−2 K−1. Assume that the thermions take only a small fraction of the heat supplied.
