Find the number of photons per second that fall

Reference no: EM13510760

Light from the sun arrives at the earth at the rate of about 1400 W/m^2 of area perpendicular to the direction of the light. Assuming that sunlight consists exclusively of light of wavelength 6x10^-7 m, find the number of photons per second that fall on each square meter of the earth's surface directly facing the sun.
