$A$ plane electromagnetic wave of intensity $6 \, W/m^2$ strikes a small mirror of area $30 \, cm^2$,held perpendicular to the approaching wave. The momentum transmitted in $kg \cdot m/s$ by the wave to the mirror each second will be:

For a plane electromagnetic wave,the magnetic field at a point $x$ and time $t$ is $\overrightarrow{ B }( x , t ) = [1.2 \times 10^{-7} \sin (0.5 \times 10^{3} x + 1.5 \times 10^{11} t) \hat{ k }] \text{ T}$. The instantaneous electric field $\overrightarrow{ E }$ corresponding to $\overrightarrow{ B }$ is: (speed of light $c = 3 \times 10^{8} \text{ m/s}$)
