Answer:
F = 2 × 10⁻³ N
Explanation:
Given:
frequency, f = 2400 MHz
Height, h = 25cm = 0.25 m
Area of the base, A = 30 cm x 30 cm = 900 cm² = 0.09 m²
Energy of the microwave, E = 0.50 mJ = 0.5 x 10⁻³ J
Now, the time taken by the wave from top to the base, t = h/c
here, c is the speed of the light
thus,
t = 0.25/(3 x 10⁸) = 8.33 x 10⁻¹⁰ s
The radiation pressure = Intensity/c
now, the intensity is given as:
I = Power/ area
also,
Power = Energy/ time = 0.5 x 10⁻³ J/8.33 x 10⁻¹⁰ s = 600000 W
thus,
I = 600000 W/ 0.09 m² = 6666666.6 W/m²
substituting the value in the formula for pressure due to radiation, we have
= 6666666.6 W/m²/(3 x 10⁸)
also
pressure = Force/ area
thus,
Force/ area = 6666666.6 W/m²/(3 x 10⁸)
or
Force (F) = (6666666.6 W/m² × 0.09 m²)/(3 x 10⁸)
or
F = 2 × 10⁻³ N
