    The mass of a photon with a wavelength equal to \[1.54\times {{10}^{-8}}cm\] is:

    A) \[0.8268\times {{10}^{-34}}kg\]

    B) \[1.2876\times {{10}^{-33}}kg\]

    C) \[1.4285\times {{10}^{-32}}kg\]

    D) \[1.8884\times {{10}^{-32}}kg\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    We know that\[\lambda =\frac{h}{mv}\] \[\therefore \]  \[m=\frac{h}{\lambda v}\] The velocity of photon                 \[(v)=3\times {{10}^{8}}m\,{{\sec }^{-1}}\] \[\lambda =1.54\times {{10}^{-8}}cm=1.54\times {{10}^{-10}}\]metre \[\therefore \]\[m=\frac{6.626\times {{10}^{-34}}Js}{1.54\times {{10}^{-10}}m\times 3\times {{10}^{-8}}m\,{{\sec }^{-1}}}\] \[=1.4285\times {{10}^{-32}}kg\]
