NEET 2021 Physics Photon Energy MCQ Question

Type: MCQ-numerical-Easy-Class 12

The number of photons per second on an average emitted by the source of monochromatic light of wavelength 600 nₘ, when it delivers the power of 3.3 × 10⁻³ watt will be : (h = 6.6 × 10⁻³⁴ Js)

A

10¹⁸

B

10¹⁷

C

10¹⁶

D

10¹⁵

Correct Answer

Option C

Detailed Explanation

The energy of one photon is given by E = hc/λ. The number of photons per second is power divided by the energy of one photon. Substituting the values, we find the number of photons is 10¹⁷.
