The sun delivers 10^3W//m^2 of electromagnetic flux to the earth's surface, which is at a distance of 1.5xx10^(11)m from the sun. The whole incident electromagnetic flux is absorbed by the earth. The radiation force on the roof is

Answer»

`2.67xx10^-4N`
`5.34xx10^-4N`
`2.33xx10^-4N`
`1.33xx10^-4N`

Solution :Radiation force on the roof
`=("TOTAL POWER on roof ")/("VELOCITY of LIGHT")=(8xx10^4)/(3xx10^8)=2.67xx10^-4N`
