A solar sail 32.5 m2 in area and made of an absorptive material is orbiting the Sun in space. The Sun light normally incident on the solar sail exerts a radiation pressure of 3.22E-6 N/m2 on it. If the material is replaced with a reflective material that can complete reflect the Sun light, what will the radiation pressure become (in N/m2)?
A laser can suspend a small glass sphere in Earth's gravitational field, g = 9.80 m/s2. Assume that the suspended sphere is made of perfectly absorbing black glass. The sphere has a radius of 0.560 mm and a density of 0.190 g/cm3. Determine the radiation intensity needed to keep the small glass sphere suspended. (answer in kW / cm^2)
Light with an intensity of (5.4x10^0) kW/m² falls normally on a surface and is
completely reflected. What is the radiation pressure in μPa. Use two significant
figures for your answer.
Note: Your answer is assumed to be reduced to the highest power possible.
