Chapter 1 Working Mechanism
1.1 Working Mechanism of Compact Fluorescent Lamp
The conversion of electrical energy into radiant energy is relied on inelastic scattering of electrons inside the tube. Low pressure mercury vapor is injected into the tube. When the tube is connected to electricity, electrons emitted from the tube by the high temperature filament. The electrons moving in collide with the mercury atoms. Such collisions transfer kinetic energy in electrons to the mercury atoms. By absorbing this extra energy, the outermost shell electron in mercury atoms jump to a higher energy state, which is unstable to stay. A photon is emitted and this excited electron moves back to its original position. According to Planck’s law,

E = hc/λ Where E is the energy of the photon carries, h is Planck’s constant, c is the speed of light

    If an electron absorbs sufficient energy to bridge the “gap” between energy levels, the electron may jump to a higher level and become “excited”. Since this change results in a vacant lower orbital, the configuration is unstable. The excited electron releases its newly acquired energy and falls back to its initial or “ground state”. Sometimes the excited electrons acquire sufficient energy to make several energy level transitions. When these electrons return to their ground state, several distinct energy emissions occur. Electrons may become excited when a sample of matter is heated or subjected to an electrical current. The energy that electrons emit when returning to the ground state is electromagnetic radiation, or EMR. Sometimes the EMR can be seen as visible light.…

    This excites electrons causing them to gain energy. As the electrons gain energy they are moved into higher energy levels. Naturally, electrons want to move back to their original state. As the electrons move down from higher energy levels, a photon is emitted. A photon is a particle of light. The absorption of energy, and the energy of the energy emitted is quantized. Electrons can take one big step as it reaches its base state and release one photon. Electrons could also take many little steps as it travels to its base state, emitting a photon at each level. To determine the energy of the emitted photon we have to look at the difference in energy of the excited state and the relaxed state. This energy determines the light emitted.…

    The design argument, also known as the teleological argument essentially means that the universe and everything within it has a specific design and purpose. (Perry, Bratman, Fischer 57) The Greek term; ‘telos’ is the derivative form of teleology which means end or purpose. This argument is entirely a posteriori and we learn about the existence of God through experience and empirical knowledge. This argument was developed by Thomas Aquinas and his fifth version. In this essay, I will explore the merits and flaws of this viewpoint by quoting Aquinas, William Paley, Richard Swinburne, Mark Twain, Frederick Tennant and David Hume who contributed comprehensively to this idea.…

    “With such signs of forethought in the design of living creature, can you doubt they are the work of choice or design?” (Socrates). The word ‘Telos’ is Greek for purpose. The Teleological argument thus argues that the universe is being directed towards a telos, an end purpose, and the posteriori evidence of an apparent intelligent design in the world. A posteriori argument is based on observations and/or experiences. Furthermore, the teleological argument is based on the character of the world and the universe. For example, our world is a place of such extraordinary interlocking complexity that the only rational explanation is the presence of an intelligent designer. There are two main arguments within the design argument; the first is an…
