Question

If a photon has a frequency of 5.20 × 1014 hertz, what is the energy of the photon? given: planck's constant is 6.63 × 10-34 joule·seconds. a. 3.45 × 10-19 joules b. 7.91 × 10-16 joules c. 4.32 × 10-14 joules d. 3.43 × 10-14 joules

Answer 1

If a photon has a frequency of 5.20 × 1014 hertz, then the energy of the photon will be 3.45 x 10^-19 Joules.

What is photon energy?

The energy carried by a single photon is referred to as photon energy. The amount of energy is related to the electromagnetic frequency of the photon and consequently inversely proportional to the wavelength. The higher the frequency of a photon, the greater its energy. The longer the wavelength of a photon, the lower its energy.

Given:

frequency = 5.20 × 10^(14) hertz

plank's constant = 6.63 × 10^-34 joule·seconds

Formula used:

E = hv

( where E = energy of the photon)

Solution:

E = 6.63 x 10 ^(-34) x 5.20 x 10^(14) = 34.476 x 10^ -19 Joules
