Number of photons of equal energy emitted per second by a 6 mW laser source operating at 663 nm is . (Given : h = 6.63 10-34 J s and c = 3 108 m/s)
- 10 1015
- 5 1016
- 5 1015
- 2 1016
Answer
(4) 2 1016
Solution
Energy of one photon: E = hc = 6.63 10-34 3 108663 10-9
E = 3 10-19 J
Number of photons per second: N = PE = 6 10-33 10-19
N = 2 1016 s-1
Answer: (4)
