The number of photons falling per second on a completely darkened plate to produce a force
of \( 6.62 \times 10^{-5} \mathrm{~N} \) is ' \( n \) '. If the wavelength of the light falling is \( 5 \times 10^{-7} \mathrm{~m} \), then \( n= \)
\( \times 10^{22} \).
\( \left(h=6.62 \times 10^{-34}\right) \mathrm{J}_{\mathrm{S}} \)

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \( 05 \)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Given, force, \(F=6.62 \times 10^{-5} \mathrm{~N} ;\) wavelength,\(\lambda=5 \times 10^{-7} \mathrm{~m}\)
Now, \(C \times F=\frac{h c}{\lambda} \times \frac{n}{t}\)
or \(F=\frac{h n}{\lambda t}\)
\(\Rightarrow \frac{n}{t}=\frac{F \lambda}{h}=\frac{6.62 \times 10^{-5}}{6.62 \times 10^{-34}} \times 5 \times 10^{-7}=5 \times 10^{22}\)
Therefore, number of photons falling per second \(=5 \times 10^{22}\)
