11.5 The energy flux of sunlight, = 1.388 W/
Hence power of the sunlight per square meter, P = 1.388
Speed of light, c = 3 m/s
Planck's constant, h = 6.626 Js
Average wavelength of photon, = 550 nm = 550 m
If n is the number of photon per square meter, incident on earth per second, the equation o

Now, k? = E? - Φ
k? = E? - Φ = z²E? - Φ
∴ k? /k? = (10.2 - Φ)/ (4 × 10.2 - Φ) = 1/5.25
=> Φ = 3eV
