JEE Main & Advanced Physics Photo Electric Effect, X- Rays & Matter Waves Question Bank Photon and Photoelectric Effect

  • question_answer
    The momentum of a photon is\[2\times {{10}^{-16}}\]gm-cm/sec. Its energy is                                 [CPMT 1974]

    A)            \[0.61\times {{10}^{-26}}erg\]                                         

    B)            \[2.0\times {{10}^{-26}}erg\]

    C)            \[6\times {{10}^{-6}}erg\]      

    D)            \[6\times {{10}^{-8}}erg\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

               \[p=\frac{E}{c}\,\Rightarrow \,\,E=p\times c=2\times {{10}^{-16}}\times (3\times {{10}^{10}})\]\[=6\times {{10}^{-6}}erg.\]
