The electric field in a plane electromagnetic wave is given by
E=200cos0.5×103 m-1x-1.5×1011 rad s-1t V m-1 j^.
If this wave falls normally on a perfectly reflecting surface having an area of100 cm2. If the radiation pressure exerted by the E.M. wave on the surface during a10 minexposure isk109 N m-2. Find the value ofk

Answer:
354.00
Solution:

E0=200

I=12ε0E02c
Radiation pressure
P=2lc=2c12ε0E02C=ε0E02P=8.85×10-12×2002=8.85×10-8×4=354109So,k=354
