Question 32 • Crowley Credit Recovery Physics B

What is the energy of a photon with a frequency of 2.2 × 1016 Hz? Planck’s constant is 6.63 × 10–34 J•s.

Answer
A
1.5 × 10–17 J
B
8.8 × 10–17 J
C
1.5 × 10–16 J
D
8.8 × 10–16 J

Explanation

Use the photon energy formula E = hf, where h is Planck’s constant and f is the frequency. E = (6.63 × 10⁻³⁴ J•s)(2.2 × 10¹⁶ Hz) = 1.46 × 10⁻¹⁷ J, which rounds to 1.5 × 10⁻¹⁷ J, choice A.
