s*******y 发帖数: 105 | 1 A straight pipe with the opening cross section S is filled with
dust. The number of dust particles is N>>1, cross section of
each particle is s, and the total cross-section Ns=S. The
particles are blocking light coming through the pipe, but not
completely, because their shadows overlap due to random positions.
What is the pipe's light transmission coefficient?
有个解法是:
If the pipe is long enough, then only parrllel light paths can possibly
transmit through the pipe. Therefore, the | t*******e 发帖数: 172 | 2 each time, the prob of a point not covered by a dust is 1-1/N. which means
that after N times the prob of a point not covered by N dust is (1-1/N)^{N}.
as N -> infinite. it is 1/e. |
