Answer:

7.84 x 10¹⁶ photons/s

Explanation:

Given,

Total energy = 0.54 J

Period = 33 s

Photons per second = ?

Wavelength of the Photon = 989 nm

Energy of  single photon:

[tex]E =\frac{h c}{\lambda}[/tex]

[tex]=\frac{6.626 \times 10^{-34} \times 2.998 \times 10^{8}}{989 \times 10^{-9}}[/tex]

[tex]=2.01 \times 10^{-19} \mathrm{J}[/tex]

Total energy

Time period [tex]=33 \mathrm{s}[/tex]

Energy absorbed per sec [tex]=\frac{0.52}{33 }=0.01575 \mathrm{J} / \mathrm{s}[/tex]

Energy of a photon [tex]=2.01 \times 10^{-19} \mathrm{J} /[/tex] photon

Number of photons emitted per second is

[tex]\frac{0.01575}{2.01 \times 10^{-19}} \mathrm{J} / \text { photon }}[/tex]

Number of photons = 7.84 x 10¹⁶ photons/s

The number of photons per second are being emitted by the laser will be "7.84 × 10¹⁶ photons/s".

Wavelength and Photon

According to the question,

Total energy = 0.54 J

Period = 33 s

Photon's wavelength = 989 nm

We know the relation,

Energy of single photon be:

→ E = [tex]\frac{hc}{\lambda}[/tex]

By substituting the values,

     = [tex]\frac{6.626\times 10^{-34}\times 2.998\times 10^8}{989\times 10^{-9}}[/tex]

     = 2.01 × 10⁻⁹ J

Now, the absorbed energy be:

= [tex]\frac{0.52}{33}[/tex]

= 0.01575 J/s

hence,

The no. of photons emitted be:

= [tex]\frac{0.01575}{2.01\times 10^{-10}}[/tex]

= 7.84 × 10¹⁶ photons/s

Thus the above response is right.
