Answer:
3.75 MeV
Explanation:
The energy of the photon can be given in terms of frequency as:
E = h * f
Where h = Planck's constant
The frequency of the photon is 6 * 10^20 Hz.
The energy (in Joules) is:
E = 6.63 x10^(-34) * 6 * 10^(20)
E = 39.78 * 10^(-14) J = 3.978 * 10^(-13) J
We are given that:
1 eV = 1.06 * 10^(-19) Joules
This means that 1 Joule will be:
1 J = 1 / (1.06 * 10^(-19)
1 J = 9.434 * 10^(18) eV
=> 3.978 * 10^(-13) J = 3.978 * 10^(-13) * 9.434 * 10^(18) = 3.75 * 10^(6) eV
This is the same as 3.75 MeV.
The correct answer is not in the options, but the closest to it is option C.
