Question : 7 of 14
Marks: +1, -0
The momentum (in SI units) associated with a photon of energy 1.5 eV is:
Solution:  
The momentum p associated with a photon can be calculated using the equation:
p=Ec
where E is the energy of the photon and c is the speed of light in a vacuum.
Given that the energy E of the photon is 1.5 eV, and the speed of light c is approximately 3×108 meters per second, we can calculate the momentum p:
p=1.5 eVc
p≈1.5×1.6×10−19J3×108 m∕s
p≈2.4×10−19J3×108 m∕s
p≈8×10−28 kg m∕s
