In a process, certain amount of mass gets converted into energy. Let all the energy so converted be in the form of photons. If 700×1012 Hz is the mean frequency of the photons and if there are approximately 1030 photons, what is the approximate mass that is converted into photons? (Assume h=6.6×10-34 J s, c=3×108 m s-1)
