Help calculating the number of photons emitted per second.?

A) E = hc/wavelength gives you the energy of the photon. This should give 3.2 x 10^-19 joule b) 100 watt = 100 J/s So that would correspond to 100/3.2 x 10^-19 =3.2 x 10^20 photons. C) There are too many of them... Note that the question is very irrealistic.

90% of the light bulbs energy is lost as heat, which has much higher wavelengths, but smaller energies: the real numbers of photons will be at least ten times higher.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
