Monochromatic Light Of Wavelength 667 Nm Is Produced By A Physics Question

Monochromatic light of wavelength 667 nm is produced by a helium neon laser. The power emitted is 9 mW. The number of photons arriving per second on the average at a large irradiated by this beam is:

Options

(a) 3 x 10¹⁶
(b) 9 x 10¹⁵
(c) 3 x 10¹⁹
(d) 9 x 10¹⁷

Correct Answer:

3 x 10¹⁶

Explanation:

λ = 667 x 10⁻⁹ m, P = 9 x 10⁻³ W
P = Nhc / λ, N = no. of photons emitted/sec.
N = (9 x 10⁻³ x 667 x 10⁻⁹) / (6.6 x 10⁻³⁴ x 3 x 10⁸)
= 9 x 6.67 x 10⁻¹⁰ / 3 x 6.6 x 10⁻²⁶
3 x 10¹⁶ / sec
