A source \(S_1\) is producing, \(10^{15}\) photons per sec of wavelength \(5000~\mathring{A}\). Another source \(S_2\) is producing \(1.02\times 10^{15}\) photons per second of wavelength \(5100~\mathring{A}\). Then the ratio of the power of \(S_2\) to the power of \(S_1\) is equal to:
1. \(1.00\) 2. \(1.02\)
3. \(1.04\) 4. \(0.98\)
