The correct answer is: 6
The frequency of optical communication is given by,

v=cλ or v=3×1081200×10-9

v=25×1013 Hz

But only 2% of the source frequency is available for TV transmission.

v=2.5×1014 ×2%

v=2.5×1014 ×2100

v=5×1012 Hz

∴  Number of channels=vbandwidth

No of channels=5×10125×106=106=1 million
