Physics Question on Electromagnetic waves
If a source of electromagnetic radiation having power 15kW produces 1016 photons per second, the radiation belongs to a part of spectrum is(Take Planck constant h=6×10−34Js )
A
Micro waves
B
Radio waves
C
Gamma rays
D
Ultraviolet rays
Answer
Gamma rays
Explanation
Solution
Energy of one photon = Photon frequency Power
E=hv=101615×103
v=6×10−3415×10−13=2.5×1021
So gamma Rays. Option 3
