Rate of Energy Transfer using Distances and Donor Lifetime Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Rate of Energy Transfer = (1/Donor Lifetime)*(Forster Critical Distance/Donor to Acceptor Distance)^6
K_T = (1/ζ_D)*(R₀/r)^6
This formula uses 4 Variables

Variables Used

Rate of Energy Transfer - Rate of Energy Transfer is simply the rate of energy transfer from a donor to an acceptor.
Donor Lifetime - The Donor Lifetime is the donor's fluorescence lifetime in the absence of the acceptor.
Forster Critical Distance - (Measured in Meter) - The Forster Critical Distance is the distance at which the energy transfer efficiency is 50%.
Donor to Acceptor Distance - (Measured in Meter) - Donor to Acceptor Distance is the distance between the donor and the acceptor molecules.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Donor Lifetime: 0.01 --> No Conversion Required
Forster Critical Distance: 40 Angstrom --> 4E-09 Meter (Check conversion here)
Donor to Acceptor Distance: 50 Angstrom --> 5E-09 Meter (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

K_T = (1/ζ_D)*(R₀/r)^6 --> (1/0.01)*(4E-09/5E-09)^6
