Dual Nature Of Radiation And Matter Ques 43

43. Monochromatic light of frequency $6.0 \times 10^{14}$ $ Hz$ is produced by a laser. The power emitted is $2 \times 10^{-3}$ $ W$. The number of photons emitted, on the average, by the sources per second is

[2007]

(a) $5 \times 10^{16}$

(b) $5 \times 10^{17}$

(c) $5 \times 10^{14}$

(d) $5 \times 10^{15}$

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: 43.(d)

Solution:

  1. (d) Since $p=n h v$

$ \Rightarrow n=\frac{p}{h v}=\frac{2 \times 10^{-3}}{6.6 \times 10^{-34} \times 6 \times 10^{14}}=5 \times 10^{15} $
