A `"50 W m"^(-2)` energy density of sunlight is incident normally on the surface of a solar panel. Some part of incident energy `(25%)` is reflected from the surface and the rest is absorbed. The force exerted on `1m^(2)` surface area will be close to
`(c=3xx10^(8)ms^(-1))`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`F=(1+r)(IA)/C`
`=((1+0.25)xx50xx1)/(3xx10^(8))`
`=20xx10^(8)N`
