Calculate the energy of a photon, with a frequency of 3.0 x 10^18 Hz.(h = 6.63 x 10^-34)
Correct answer: A. 19.89 x 10^-16 J
- A. 19.89 x 10^-16 J
- B. 11.89 x 10^-16 J
- C. 1.89 x 10^-16 J
- D. 19.89 x 10^-18 J
Explanation
The correct option is A.E=hf = 6.63×10-34 × 3×10¹⁸ = 19.89×10-16 J

About Dawn of Modern Physics
Classical physics cannot explain blackbody radiation and related observations, leading to Planck’s quantum theory, in which energy is emitted or absorbed in discrete packets. Photons provide the particle model of light, with energy and momentum linked to frequency and wavelength, including the photoelectric effect and its threshold frequency.
