Monochromatic light of frequency 6 × 10 14 Hz is produced by a laser. The power emitted is 2 × 10 - 3 W . How many photons per second on an average, are emitted by the source? (Given h = 6 . 63 × 10 - 34 J s )
Options
- A9 × 10 18
- B6 × 10 15
- C5 × 10 15
- D7 × 10 16
Correct answer
C. 5 × 10 15
Step-by-step solution
Energy of a single photon is given by, h ν . Therefore, power can be written as P = n h v ⇒ n = P h ν = 2 × 10 - 3 6 . 63 × 10 - 34 × 6 × 10 14 = 5 × 10 15
