A laser light of wavelength660nmis used to weld Retina detachment. If a laser pulse of width60msand power0.5 kWis used, the approximate number of photons in the pulse are (Take Planck's Constant,h=6.62×1034J s)

Options:

Answer:
C
Solution:

The energy of photon is given by E=hcλ.

PowerP is given as, P=Et=nhcλt

From the above equation, the number of photons is n=Pλthc

=0.5×103×660×10-9×60×10-36.6×10-34×3×108

Hence, number of photons in the pulse are=100×1018=1020.
