Answer

(a) $\lambda = 1.06\times 10^{-6}~m$ (b) $P = 1.87~W$

Work Step by Step

(a) We can find the wavelength: $\lambda = \frac{hc}{E}$ $\lambda = \frac{(6.63\times 10^{-34}~J~s)(3.0\times 10^8~m/s)}{(1.17~eV)(1.6\times 10^{-19}~J/eV)}$ $\lambda = 1.06\times 10^{-6}~m$ (b) We can find the power output: $P = (1.17~eV)(1.6\times 10^{-19}~J/eV)(1.00\times 10^{19}~s^{-1})$ $P = 1.87~W$
