Concept:
The "quantum of electromagnetic radiation" is called a photon. It is, in other words, the tiniest and most basic component of electromagnetic radiation. A photon is a stable particle that has no mass and no electric charge.
Given:
Wavelength (λ) = 4.2 A° = 4.2 * 10⁻¹⁰ m
Find:
The mass of the proton having a wavelength of 4.2 A° of is?
Solution:
We know the formula that can be written as:
e = mc²
where m is the mass of a proton.
c is the speed of light = 3 * 10⁸ m/s
Also, e = hc / λ
Using the value of Planck's constant as 6.626 * 10⁻³⁴ Kg.
By substituting the given values in the above expression, we can calculate the mass of the proton as follows below:
hc / λ = mc²
h/λc = m
(6.626 * 10⁻³⁴ Kg) / (4.2 * 10⁻¹⁰ m * 3 * 10⁸ m/s) = m
0.526 * 10⁻³⁴ * 10² Kg = m
0.526 * 10⁻³² = m
5.26 * 10⁻³³ Kg = m
Thus, the mass of a photon having a wavelength of 4.2 A° is 5.26 * 10⁻³³ Kg.
Hence, none of the given options are correct.
