Define the term "Intensity" in photon picture of electromagnetic radiation.

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Understanding the Concept of Intensity**: - Intensity in the context of electromagnetic radiation refers to the amount of energy that is transmitted through a certain area over a specific time period. 2. **Photon Picture of Electromagnetic Radiation**: - In the photon model, electromagnetic radiation is considered to be made up of discrete packets of energy called photons. Each photon carries a specific amount of energy. ...
