A radiation of energy `E` falls normally on a perfctly refelecting surface . The momentum transferred to the surface is

A

`(2E)/(C )`

B

`(2E)/(C ^(2) )`

C

`(E )/(C ^(2))`

D

`(E )/(C ) `

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

E = energy radiated .
Force F `=(dp) /( dt) =("power ")/( "Velocity ") =(dE//dt)/(C ) `
`Delta P =(2E ) /(C ) `
