JEE Mains · Physics · STD 12 - 11. Dual nature of radiation and matter

Monochromatic light of frequency \(6 \times 10^{14} \mathrm{~Hz}\) is produced by a laser. The power emitted is \(2 \times 10^{-3} \mathrm{~W}\). How many photons per second on an average, are emitted by the source? (Given \(\mathrm{h}=6.63 \times 10^{-34} \mathrm{Js}\) )

  1. A  \(9 \times 10^{18}\)
  2. B \(6 \times 10^{15}\)
  3. C \(5 \times 10^{15}\)
  4. D \(7 \times 10^{16}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(5 \times 10^{15}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\mathrm{P}=\mathrm{nh \nu}\) \(\mathrm{n}=\frac{\mathrm{P}}{\mathrm{h} \nu}=\frac{2 \times 10^{-3}}{6.63 \times 10^{-34} \times 6 \times 10^{14}}\) \(=5 \times 10^{15}\)
