A black totally absorbing piece of carboard of area A=2.0 `cm^(2)` intercepts light with an intensity of 10 `W//m^(2)` from a camera strobe light . What radiation pressure is produced on the cardboard by the light ?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To calculate the radiation pressure produced on the cardboard by the light, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the formula for radiation pressure The radiation pressure \( P \) can be calculated using the formula: \[ P = \frac{I}{c} \] where: ...
