Radiation of wavelength $300 \ nm$ and intensity $100 \ W \ m^{-2}$ falls on the surface of a photosensitive material. If $2 \%$ of the incident photons produce photoelectrons,the number of photoelectrons emitted from an area of $2 \ cm^2$ of the surface per second is nearly:

  • A
    $15 \times 10^{11}$
  • B
    $6.04 \times 10^{14}$
  • C
    $1.5 \times 10^{12}$
  • D
    $60.4 \times 10^{15}$
