Light with an energy flux of 9 Wcm ⁻² falls on a nonreflecting surface at normal incidence. If the surface has an area of 20 ~cm ^2 . The total momentum delivered for complete absorption in one hour is
Options
- A2.16 10⁻⁴ kgms ⁻¹
- B1.16 10⁻³ kgms ⁻¹
- C2.16 10⁻³ kgms ⁻¹
- D3.16 10⁻⁴ kgms ⁻¹
Correct answer
C. 2.16 10⁻³ kgms ⁻¹
Step-by-step solution
We have total momentum as p= ( I A c ) t for non reflecting surface, aligned & p= ( 9 10^4 20 10⁻⁴ 3 10^8 3600 ) & =216 10⁻³ kgms ⁻¹ aligned
