Light having an energy flux of $40 \ Wcm^{-2}$ falls on a non-reflecting surface at normal incidence. If the surface has an area of $20 \ cm^2$,the total momentum delivered (for complete absorption) during $10 \ min$ is:
- A$24 \times 10^{-5} \ kg \ ms^{-1}$
- B$16 \times 10^{-4} \ kg \ ms^{-1}$
- C$102 \times 10^4 \ kg \ ms^{-1}$
- D$1.03 \times 10^7 \ kg \ ms^{-1}$

View Solution$A$ parallel beam of light is incident normally on a plane surface absorbing $50\%$ of the light and reflecting the rest. If the incident beam carries $90 \text{ W}$ of power,the force exerted by it on the surface is ($C = 3 \times 10^8 \text{ m/s}$ is the velocity of light in air).
What is the force exerted on a mirror of area $40 \, cm^2$ when an $EM$ wave of intensity $6 \, W/m^2$ is incident on it?
