Two sources emit beams of light of wavelength 550 nm. The light from source A has an intensity of 10 μW/m2, and the light from s

ource B has an intensity of 20 μW/m2. This is all we know about the two beams. Which of the following statements about these beams are correct? A) Beam B carries twice as many photons per second as beam A. B) A photon in beam B has twice the energy of a photon in beam A. C) The frequency of the light in beam B is twice as great as the frequency of the light in beam A. D) A photon in beam B has the same energy as a photon in beam A. E) None of the above statements are true.

Answer:

<em>A) Beam B carries twice as many photons per second as beam A.</em>

Explanation:

If we have two waves with the same wavelength, then their intensity is proportional to their power, or the energy per unit time.

We also know that the amount of photon present in an electromagnetic beam is proportional to the energy of the beam, hence the amount of beam per second is proportional to the power.

With these two facts, we can say that the intensity is a measure of the amount of photon per second in an electromagnetic beam. So we can say that <em>beam B carries twice as more power than beam A, or Beam B carries twice as many photons per second as beam A.</em>

The frequency of a given region of the electromagnetic spectrum ranges from 3 × 1016 − 3 × 1019 hertz. Which type of wave is fou
Bond [772]
<span>Wavelength = (speed) / (frequency)
Speed of EM radiation = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

Frequency (3 × 10¹⁹ Hz)  ===>  wavelength  =  0.01 nanometer

Frequency (3 × 10¹⁶ Hz)  ===>  wavelength  =  10 nanometers</span>

This is the region of X-rays.
