    Answer:

    The energy of one photon of this microwave radiation is 1.56\times 10^{-24}\ J.

    Explanation:

    Given that,

    Wavelength of the microwave, \lambda=12.7\ cm=12.7\times 10^{-2}\ m

    We need to find the energy of exactly one photon of this microwave radiation. We know that the energy of a photon is given by the formula as :

    E=\dfrac{nhc}{\lambda}\\\\E=\dfrac{1\times 6.63\times 10^{-34}\times 3\times 10^8}{12.7\times 10^{-2}}\\\\E=1.56\times 10^{-24}\ J

    So, the energy of one photon of this microwave radiation is 1.56\times 10^{-24}\ J. Hence, this is the required solution.
