NEET2005PhysicsDual Nature of MatterActual
The pressure exerted by an electromagnetic wave of intensity I (watt / m ^2 ) on a nonreflecting surface is [ c is the velocity of light]
Options
- AI c
- BI c^2
- CI / c
- DI / c^2 .
Correct answer
C. I / c
Step-by-step solution
Pressure = Force / area I= Energy area-time = F S A t = F c A I / c=P
