Light falls on a non-reflecting surface normally. If the average force exerted on a surface with area \(15 \mathrm{~cm}^2\) during 20 minute time interval is \(10^{-6} \mathrm{~N}\), then energy flux of light is
(Velocity of light \(=3 \times 10^8 \mathrm{~ms}^{-1}\) )

  1. A \(20 \times 10^4 \mathrm{Wm}^{-2}\)
  2. B \(15 \times 10^4 \mathrm{Wm}^{-2}\)
  3. C \(25 \times 10^4 \mathrm{Wm}^{-2}\)
  4. D \(10 \times 10^4 \mathrm{Wm}^{-2}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(20 \times 10^4 \mathrm{Wm}^{-2}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Radiation pressure on a totally absorbing (non reflecting) surface is Pressure \(=\frac{F}{A}=\frac{I}{c}\)...(i) Where, \(I=\) Intensity,\(c=\) speed of light it is given that,…
