$A$ sensor is exposed for time $t$ to a lamp of power $P$ placed at a distance $l$. The sensor has a circular opening that is $4d$ in diameter. Assuming all energy of the lamp is given off as light,the number of photons entering the sensor if the wavelength of light is $\lambda$ is (given $l >> d$):

  • A
    $\frac{P\lambda d^2 t}{hc l^2}$
  • B
    $\frac{4P\lambda d^2 t}{hc l^2}$
  • C
    $\frac{P\lambda d^2 t}{4hc l^2}$
  • D
    $\frac{P\lambda d^2 t}{16hc l^2}$

$A$ source $S_1$ is producing $10^{15}$ photons per second of wavelength $5000 \; \mathring{A}$. Another source $S_2$ is producing $1.02 \times 10^{15}$ photons per second of wavelength $5100 \; \mathring{A}$. Then,$(\text{power of } S_2) / (\text{power of } S_1)$ is equal to

Two sources of light emit $X$-rays of wavelength $1 \ nm$ and visible light of wavelength $500 \ nm$,respectively. Both sources emit light of the same power $200 \ W$. The ratio of the number of photons emitted per second by the $X$-ray source to the number of photons emitted per second by the visible light source is:

$A$ photon of wavelength $\lambda$ is scattered from an electron,which was at rest. The wavelength shift $\Delta \lambda$ is three times of $\lambda$ and the angle of scattering $\theta$ is $60^o$. The angle at which the electron recoiled is $\phi$. The value of $\tan \phi$ is: (electron speed is much smaller than the speed of light)
