JEE Mains · Chemistry · STD 11 - 2. structure of atom

The candela is the luminous intensity, in a given direction, of a source that emits monochromatic radiation of frequency ' \(\mathrm{A}\) ' \(\times 10^{12}\) hertz and that has a radiant intensity in that direction of \(\frac{1}{{ }^{\prime}}\) watt per steradian. ' \(A\) ' and ' \(B\) ' are respectively _______.

  1. A \(540\) and \(\frac{1}{683}\)
  2. B \(540\) and \(683\)
  3. C \(450\) and \(\frac{1}{683}\)
  4. D \(450\) and \(683\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(540\) and \(683\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

The candela is the luminous intensity of a source that emits monochromatic radiation of frequency radiation of frequency \(540 \times 10^{12} \mathrm{~Hz}\) and has a radiant intensity in that direction of \(\frac{1}{683} \mathrm{w} / \mathrm{sr}\). It is unit of Candela.
