Question:

A red LED (light emitting diode) is connected to a battery; it carries a current. As electrons move through the diode, they jump between states, emitting photons in the process. Assume that each electron that travels through the diode causes the emission of a single 630 nm photon. What current is necessary to produce 5.0 mW of emitted light?
