Solution

The energy of a photon is inversely proportional to its wavelength. This relationship is described by the equation E = hc/λ, where E is energy, h is Planck's constant, c is the speed of light, and λ is wavelength.

Given that the energy of the first photon is E and its wavelength is 6000 Å, if the energy of the second photon is 3E, its wavelength will be 1/3 of the first photon's wavelength due to the inverse relationship.

So, the wavelength of the second photon is 6000 Å / 3 = 2000 Å.

Therefore, the correct answer is 2000 Å.
