    K so you have your computer screen, and speakers, but can they record too (input)!? My speaker vibrates by electricity to make sound, so why can't my voice make (these speakers) vibrate and send electrical signals back? A wire shoots out photons in x amount of brightness through a color-filter...

    How many electrons would transfer 1 J of energy to a screen?

    My answer to a) is 1.14 * 10^-19 J, which is correct. My answer to b) is 1.14 * 10^19, which is not correct. The correct answer is 8.8 * 10^18. How did they get that? because if 1 electron has 1.14 * 10^-19 J then won't we need 1.14 * 10^19 electrons for 1 J ?
