To solve the problem, we will analyze the relationship between the number of photons, intensity, and frequency of the two beams of light, A and B. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Given Information:** - We have two beams of light, A and B, both with equal intensity \( I \). - The number of photons hitting the screen from beam A (\( n_A \)) is twice that from beam B (\( n_B \)). - Therefore, we can write: ...
