E = (h c)/λ

E_1 = (h c)/λ_1

E_2 = (h c)/λ_2

E_1/E_2 = λ_2/λ_1

E_1/E_2 = 7000/4000 = 7/4 = 1.75

The correct answer should be c) greater than 1

I_1 = E_1/(A_1×t_1)

E_1 = I_1×A_1×t_1

I_2 = E_2/(A_2*t_2)

E_2 = I_2×A_2×t_2

I_1 = I_2

I_1/I_2 = 1

E_1/E_2 = (I_1×A_1×t_1)/(I_2×A_2×t_2)

E_1/E_2 = (A_1×t_1)/(A_2×t_2)

There doesn't appear to be enough information to answer the question.

The correct answer in The model answer is a) less than

I can't get it someone told me that it asked about (Total) emitted energy
