If the wavelength of an electromagnetic radiation is \(2000 Å\), what is its energy in ergs?

  1. A \(9.94 \times 10^{-12}\)
  2. B \(9.94 \times 10^{-19}\)
  3. C \(4.97 \times 10^{-12}\)
  4. D \(4.97 \times 10^{-19}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(9.94 \times 10^{-12}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(E=h v, v=\frac{3 \times 10^{10}}{2000 \times 10^{-8}}=1.5 \times 10^{15} \sec ^{-1}\) \(h=6.6 \times 10^{-27}\) erg sec \(E=h v=6.6 \times 10^{-27} \times 1.5 \times 10^{15}=9.94 \times 10^{-12} \mathrm{erg}\)
