Physics Question on de broglie hypothesis

The number of photons emitted per second by a 60W60\, W source of monochromatic light of wavelength 663nm663\, nm is (h=6.63×1034Js)(h=6.63\times {{10}^{-34}}Js)

A

4×10204\times {{10}^{-20}}

B

1.5×10201.5\times {{10}^{20}}

C

3×10203\times {{10}^{-20}}

D

2×10202\times {{10}^{20}}

Answer

3×10203\times {{10}^{-20}}

Explanation

Solution

Energy, E=nhcλE=\frac{nhc}{\lambda }
\Rightarrow 60×1Js=n×6.63×1034Js×3×108m663×109m60\times 1\,Js=\frac{n\times 6.63\times {{10}^{-34}}Js\times 3\times {{10}^{8}}m}{663\times {{10}^{-9}}m}
[power=energytime]\left[ \because power=\frac{energy}{time} \right]
\therefore n=60×1×663×1096.63×1034×3×108n=\frac{60\times 1\times 663\times {{10}^{-9}}}{6.63\times {{10}^{-34}}\times 3\times {{10}^{8}}}
=2×1020=2\times {{10}^{20}}
