The number of photons is 150.8 × 10^19 photons.

Given:

The photons are emitted in 10 seconds by a 100W bulb if the wavelength of light is 3000A.

To Find:

The number of photons.

Solution:

To find the number of photons we will follow the following steps:

As we know,

Power =  \frac{energy}{time}

So, the total energy emitted by a 100W bulb is:

energy =  power \times time = 100 \times 10 = 1000joule

Now,

The energy emitted by 1 photon is calculated by the formula:

 \frac{hc}{d}

Here, h is Planck's constant c is the speed of light and d is the wavelength.

h = 6.63× 10^-34 s.

c = 3 × 10^8 ms-1

d = 3000A° = 3000 × 10^-10 = 3 × 10-7 metres.

Now,

The energy of 1 photon =

 \frac{6.63 \times 3 \times  {10 }^{ - 34}  \times  {10}^{8} }{3 \times  {10}^{ - 7} }

 \frac{6.63}{1}  \times  {10}^{ - 34 + 8 + 7}  =  \frac{6.63}{1}  \times  {10}^{  - 19}joule

Now,

Number of photons =

 \frac{energy \: of \: total \: phoons}{energy \: of \: 1 \: photon}  =  \frac{1000}{6.63 \times  {10}^{ - 19} }  =

= 150.8 × 10^19.

Henceforth, the number of photons is 150.8 × 10^19.
