Answer: 3.69 × 10^27
Explanation:
Amount of energy required = 7.06 × 10^4 J
Frequency of microwave (f) = 2.88 × 10^10 s−1
Planck's constant (h) = 6.63 × 10^-34 Jᐧs/quantum
Recall ;
Energy of photon = hf
Therefore, energy of photon :
(6.63 × 10^-34)j.s× (2.88 × 10^10)s^-1
= 19.0944 × 10^(-34 + 10) = 19.0944×10^-24 J
Hence, number of quanta required :
(7.06 × 10^4)J / (19.0944 × 10^-24)J
= 0.369 × 10^(4 + 24) = 0.369×10^28
= 3.69 × 10^27
