Q17.Average force exerted on a non-reflecting surface at normal incidence is 2.4 ร— 10โˆ’4 N. If 360 W/cm2 is the light energy flux during span of 1 hour 30 minutes, Then the area of the surface is: (1) 0.2 m2 (2) 20 m2 (3) 0.1 m2 (4) 0.02 m2

What This Question Tests

This question applies the concept of radiation pressure to calculate the area of a non-reflecting surface, given the average force and light energy flux.

11.4 Monochromatic light of wavelength 632.8 nm is produced by a helium-neon laser. The power emitted is 9.42 mW. (a) Find the energy and momentum of each photon in the light beam, (b) How many photons per second, on the average, arrive at a target irradiated by this beam? (Assume the beam to have uniform cross-section which is less than the target area), and (c) How fast does a hydrogen atom have to travel in order to have the same momentum as that of the photon?
