Monochromatic light of wavelength 667 ~nm is produced by a helium neon laser. The power emitted is 9 ~mW . The number of photons arriving per sec on the average at a target irradiated by this beam is:
Options
- A3 10¹⁶
- B9 10¹⁵
- C3 10¹⁹
- D9 10¹⁷
Correct answer
A. 3 10¹⁶
Step-by-step solution
=667 10⁻⁹ m, P =9 10⁻³ ~W P = Nhc , N = No. of photons emitted/sec. N = 9 10⁻³ 667 10⁻⁹ 6.6 10⁻³⁴ 3 10⁸ =3 10¹⁶ / sec
