Explanation:
Intensity of the light = 2500 W/m^2
speed of light <u> </u>= 3 x 10^8 m/s
a) we know that the pressure for for a totally absorbing surface is given as
=
= 2500/(3 x 10^8) = <em>8.33 x 10^-6 Pa</em>
b) 1 atm = 101325 Pa
= (8.33 x 10^-6)/101325 = <em>8.23 x 10^-11 atm</em>
c) for a totally reflecting surface
=
= twice the value for totally absorbing
= 2 x 8.33 x 10^-6 = <em>1.67 x 10^-5 Pa</em>
d) 1 atm = 101325 Pa
= 2 x 8.23 x 10^-11 = <em>1.65 x 10^-10 atm</em>
