A laser with a power output of \(2~\text{mW}\) operates at a wavelength of \(500~\text{nm}.\) The number of photons emitted per second is:
(Planck's constant, \(h=6.6\times 10^{-34}~\text{J-s}\) & speed of light, \(c=3.0\times 10^8~\text{m/s}\) )
1. \( 5 \times 10^{15} \)
2. \(1.5 \times 10^{16} \)
3. \(1 \times 10^{16} \)
4. \(2 \times 10^{16}\)
1. | \( \dfrac{1}{500} \) | 2. | \( 500 \) |
3. | \( \dfrac{1}{250} \) | 4. | \( 250\) |
Given below are two statements :
Assertion (A): | Two photons having equal linear momenta have equal wavelengths. |
Reason (R): | If the wavelength of the photon is decreased, then the momentum and energy of a photon will also decrease. |
1. | Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A). |
2. | Both (A) and (R) are true but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A). |
3. | (A) is true but (R) is false. |
4. | (A) is false but (R) is true. |
