In the 25-ft Space Simulator facility at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory, a bank of overhead arc lamps can produce light of intensity 2500 W/m2 at the floor of the facility. (This simulates the intensity of sunlight near the planet Venus.) Find the average radiation pressure (in pascals and in atmospheres) on (a) a totally absorbing section of the floor and (b) a totally reflecting section of the floor. (c) Find the average momentum density (momentum per unit volume) in the light at the floor.
