So I need an equation for some quantum physics shit. Anyone have a clue about any quantum mechanics shit?
This is the question...
A digital camera basically has an array of tiny light detectors (2000x1500 = 3MegaPixels = 3 million very tiny detectors covering a cm2 or so). In each of these detectors, photons that hit the detector excite electrons and these excited electrons are counted.
In a typical picture, the detector array in the camera is exposed to about 4.5x10-6 Watts of light for 10 ms. If you take 535 nm as an average wavelength for the light, what is the average number of photons that hit each pixel in a typical picture?
(4 SigFigs, make sure to input answer in the format 1.234E5)
COME ON GUYS, IMPRESS ME!!!!!
