What is the charge on a photon?

$A$ transmitter of $100 \ W$ power emits electromagnetic waves of wavelength $540 \ nm$. How many photons are emitted per second? (Given: $h = 6 \times 10^{-34} \ J \cdot s$,$c = 3 \times 10^8 \ m/s$)

$A$ photon has a wavelength of $3 \,nm$. Its momentum and energy, respectively, will be:
$[h = 6.63 \times 10^{-34} \,Js, c = 3 \times 10^8 \,m/s]$

Calculate the number of photons entering the eye of a duck per second,corresponding to the minimum intensity of white light $(\sim 10^{-10} \ W/m^2)$. Take the area of the duck's eye as $0.4 \ cm^2$ and the average frequency of white light as $6 \times 10^{14} \ Hz$.

Two sources of light emit with a power of $200 \ W$. The ratio of the number of photons of visible light emitted per second by each source having wavelengths $300 \ nm$ and $500 \ nm$ respectively,will be:
