Calculate the mass of a photon of sodium light wavelength `600` and velocity `3 xx 10^(8)m s^(-1)`. |
|
Answer» Wavelength of photon `lambda = 600 xx 10^(-9) m = 6.0 xx 10^(-7)m` Velocity of photon `(v) = 3 xx 10^(8) m s^(-1)` Using relationship `m = (h)/(c lambda)` we get Mass of photon `= (6.626 xx 10^(-34) J s)/( 3 xx 10^(8) ms^(-1) xx 6.0 xx 10^(-7) m)` `= 3.68 xx 10^(--36) kg` |
