The photon energy is the energy carried by a single proton.

The equation used for calculating photon energy is:

E = hc / λ

where h = Planck constant

c = speed of light and

λ = wavelength of photon

frequency = f = c / λ

replace c /λ with f in the equation of photon energy

E = hf

frequency = 610 thz = 6.1 x 10¹⁴hz

h = 6.26 x 10⁻³⁴ js

E = 6.26 x 10⁻³⁴ x 6.1 x 10¹⁴

E = 3.8 x 10⁻¹⁹ j
