Ultraviolet light of wavelength $300 \ nm$ and intensity $1.0 \ W/m^2$ is incident on the surface of a photosensitive material. If $1\%$ of the incident photons produce photoelectrons,the number of photoelectrons emitted from an area of $1.0 \ cm^2$ of the surface is:

  • A
    $9.61 \times 10^{14} \ s^{-1}$
  • B
    $4.12 \times 10^{13} \ s^{-1}$
  • C
    $1.51 \times 10^{12} \ s^{-1}$
  • D
    $2.13 \times 10^{11} \ s^{-1}$
