The Human Eye Can Just Detect Green Light of Wavelength 500 nm500 \mathrm {~nm}

Question 49

Short Answer

The human eye can just detect green light of wavelength 500 nm500 \mathrm {~nm} if it arrives at the retina at the rate of 2×1018 W2 \times 10 ^ { - 18 } \mathrm {~W} . How many photons arrive each second? (c=3.0×108 m/s,h=\left( c = 3.0 \times 10 ^ { 8 } \mathrm {~m} / \mathrm { s } , h = \right. 6.626×1034 Js)\left. 6.626 \times 10 ^ { - 34 } \mathrm {~J} \cdot \mathrm { s } \right)
