The number of photons per second on an average ....

The number of photons per second on an average emitted by the source of monochromatic light of wavelength 600 nm, when it delivers the power of $3.3 \times 10^{-3}$ watt will be: ($h=6.6\times 10^{-34}$Js)

(1) $10^{18}$
(2) $10^{17}$
(3) $10^{16}$
(4) $10^{15}$

Solution

Let there be n number of photons per second.

Total energy per second of n number of photons = $n. \frac {hc}{\lambda} = 3.3 \times 10^{-3}$

$\therefore n=\frac {3.3 \times 10^{-3} \times 600 \times 10^{-9}}{6.6 \times 10^{-34} \times 3 \times 10^8} =10^{16}$

Answer: (3)

A man starts walking from the point P (-3, 4), touches the x-axis at R, and then turns to reach at the point Q (0, 2). The man is walking at a constant speed. If the man reaches the point Q in the minimum time, then $50 [(PR)^2 + (RQ)^2 ]$ is equal to _ _ _ _ . Solution For time to be minimum at constant speed, the directions must be symmetric. In other words, the angles made by PR and RQ with the vertical must be the same just like in the law of reflection in optics. $tan \theta = \frac {MP}{MR} = \frac {NQ}{NR} $ $\Rightarrow \frac {3-r}{4} = \frac {r}{2}$ $\Rightarrow r=1 $ So, $R \equiv ( - 1,0)$ Now, $50(PR^2+RQ^2)=50[(4+16)+(1+4)]=1250$
