If a source of power 4kW produces 1020 photons/second, the radiation belongs to a part of the spectrum called:
X-rays
Ultraviolet rays
γ-rays
Microwaves
Solution:
Power = n × Energy of Single Photon. 4 × 103 = 1020 × hν ν = (4 × 103) / (1020 × 6.623 × 10-34) ν = 6.03 × 1016 Hz The obtained frequency lies in the band of X-rays.
