Photons/sec = Energy/sec / Energy/photon = Power / hf = 1.e5 watts / (6.6e-34 joules sec 9.4e7 /sec) = 1.6e30 photons/secHow far away from the antenna would you have to go to have a photon intensity of 3x10^16 photons/cm^2/sec (the equivalent of a photon density of 10^6 /cm^3).
Solid angle = Area/R^2 = (.01 m)^2/R^2 = .001/R^2 % of photons in Solid Angle = .001/ Pi R^2 = 3e16/1.6e30 = 1.86e-14 ----> R = Sqrt[.001 / (Pi 1.86e-14)] = 1.31e5 m = 131 kmYou can typically detect an FM radio station 50 miles away. Given that, what is the intensity of photons/cm^2 necessary for a radio receiver to detect a signal?
photons/sec on 1cm^2 = .001 m^2/Pi/(8e4 m)^2 *1.6e30 photons/sec = 8e16 photons/sec on 1 cm^2
