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

  • question_answer
    If mean wavelength of light radiated by 100 W lamp is 5000 Å, then number of photons radiated per second are [RPET 1997]

    A)            \[3\times {{10}^{23}}\]    

    B)            \[2.5\times {{10}^{22}}\]

    C)            \[2.5\times {{10}^{20}}\]

    D)            \[5\times {{10}^{17}}\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

                       \[P=\frac{nhc}{\lambda t}\Rightarrow \frac{n}{t}=\frac{P.\lambda }{hc}=\frac{100\times 5000\times {{10}^{-10}}}{6.6\times {{10}^{-34}}\times 3\times {{10}^{8}}}\]                    \[=2.50\times {{10}^{20}}\]
