If radiation is totally absorbed and energy incident on surface in time $t$ be $U$,then write the equation for the momentum imparted to the surface.

$A$ small object at rest absorbs a light pulse of power $20\,mW$ and duration $300\,ns$. Assuming the speed of light as $3 \times 10^8\,m/s$,the momentum of the object becomes equal to $.........\times 10^{-17}\,kg\,m/s$.

The number of photons falling per second on a completely darkened plate to produce a force of $6.62 \times 10^{-5} \ N$ is $n$. If the wavelength of the light falling is $5 \times 10^{-7} \ m$,then $n = \_ \times 10^{22}$. (Given: $h = 6.62 \times 10^{-34} \ J \cdot s$)

$A$ 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).

Find the compression in the spring with spring constant $K = 5 \ N/m$ which is attached to a metal plate of area $50 \ m^2$. Light of intensity $I = 40 \ MW/m^2$ is incident at an angle of $60^o$ on the metal plate,and the coefficient of reflection is $\rho = 0.5$ for the plate. (in $m$)
