Answer:
(a,c,d)Radiation
pressure (p) is the force exerted by em wave on unit area of the surface, i.e.,
rate of change of momentum per unit area of the surface.
Momentum per unit time per unit area
Change in momentum per unit time per unit area = radiation pressure (p), i.e;
p = Momentum of incident wave per
unit time per unit area = .
When wave is fully absorbed by the surface, the momentum of
the reflected wave per unit time per unit area=0.
Radiation pressure (p) = change in momentum per unit time
per unit area =
When wave is totally reflected, then momentum of the
reflected wave per unit time per unit area =
Radiation pressure (p) =
Here , p lies between and
. Thus options (a),(c)
and (d) are correct
