Infrared lamps are used in restaurants and cafeterias to keep food warm. The infrared radiation is strongly absorbed by water, raising its temperature and that of the food. If the wavelength of infrared radiation us assumed to be 1,500 nm, then the number of photons per second of infrared radiation produced by an infrared lamp that consumes energy of the rate of 100 watt and is 12% efficient will be
