    Question

    Light energy radiated per second from a luminous body is known as:

    A.

    luminous flux

    B.

    watt

    C.

    candela

    D.

    lumen

    Correct option is A


    Explanation:
    · Luminous Flux: This is defined as the measure of the perceived power of light. It quantifies the amount of light emitted by a source in a unit of time and is measured in lumens (lm).
    · Watt: This is a unit of power, but it refers to the rate of energy transfer, not specifically to light energy.
    · Candela: This is the unit of luminous intensity, which measures the amount of light emitted in a particular direction.
    · Lumen: This is the unit of luminous flux itself, not the term for the light energy radiated per second.
