The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to calculate the pressure exerted on the screen and the momentum transferred to the screen during a specified time interval. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the given values:** - Flux density (Intensity, I) = 30 kW/m² = 30 × 10³ W/m² - Area of the screen (A) = 100 mm² = 100 × 10⁻⁶ m² - Time interval (Δt) = 1000 s - Speed of light (c) = 3 × 10⁸ m/s 2. **Calculate the pressure (P) exerted on the screen:** - The formula for pressure due to light is given by: \[ P = \frac{I}{c} \] - Substituting the values: \[ P = \frac{30 \times 10^3 \text{ W/m}^2}{3 \times 10^8 \text{ m/s}} \] - Simplifying this: \[ P = \frac{30}{3} \times 10^{3 - 8} = 10 \times 10^{-5} = 10^{-4} \text{ N/m}^2 \] 3. **Calculate the momentum transferred (Δp) to the screen:** - The formula for momentum transferred is given by: \[ \Delta p = P \times A \times \Delta t \] - Substituting the values: \[ \Delta p = (10^{-4} \text{ N/m}^2) \times (100 \times 10^{-6} \text{ m}^2) \times (1000 \text{ s}) \] - Simplifying this: \[ \Delta p = 10^{-4} \times 100 \times 10^{-6} \times 1000 = 10^{-4} \times 10^{-4} \times 10^{3} = 10^{-5} \text{ kg m/s} \] 4. **Final Results:** - Pressure (P) = \(10^{-4} \text{ N/m}^2\) - Momentum transferred (Δp) = \(10^{-5} \text{ kg m/s}\) ### Summary of Results: - Pressure (P) = \(10^{-4} \text{ N/m}^2\) - Momentum transferred (Δp) = \(10^{-5} \text{ kg m/s}\)
