For convenience sake let’s say you have 2 identical lasers, one is blue and one is red. And you shine it on lead (so none of the light leaks through) until the lead doesn’t heat up anymore. Would the temperature change at all between the different color lasers. It doesn’t have to be red or blue, it could be microwave or x ray, just different colors is nessisary.
That’s not really necessary. Lasers are usually rated by the output power already.
If you’re measuring energy input by rating on the box yes, but instead of assuming that is your measurement data, they assumed perfect conversion.
It has the same end result descriptively but I’d argue that perfect conversion paints an easier to understand theoretical image, vs a more rigid practical image
Yes, but the input power moat likely varies, and that’s because the energy conversion is not perfect, depending on the mechanics some energy might be dissipated as sound or most likely heat. But since I don’t know the specifics I can’t account for it, and it’s possible that red lasers require more energy than blue lasers because of a quirk in the way they’re generated currently. If we ignore that and imagine a magic box that can convert 100% of the energy given into specific color photons, for any given input it will generate more photons when configured to red than to blue, because a single blue photon contains more energy than a single red photon, therefore you need more red photons to get to the same level of energy.
