To find the average force exerted on a perfectly reflecting surface by electromagnetic waves, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Momentum of Electromagnetic Waves The momentum \( p \) of electromagnetic waves can be expressed as: \[ p = \frac{E}{c} \] where \( E \) is the energy of the wave and \( c \) is the speed of light. ...
