When light of wavelength $\lambda$ is incident on a photosensitive surface,photons of power $P$ are emitted. The number of photons $n$ emitted in time $t$ is: [$h$ = Planck's constant,$c$ = velocity of light in vacuum]

  • A
    $\frac{hc}{P \lambda t}$
  • B
    $\frac{P \lambda}{htc}$
  • C
    $\frac{P \lambda t}{hc}$
  • D
    $\frac{hP}{\lambda tc}$
