What is the radiation pressure 1.5 m away from a 700 W lightbulb? Assume that the surface on which the pressure is exerted faces the bulb and is perfectly absorbing and that the bulb radiates uniformly in all directions.

Answer:

3.30 x 10^-7 Pascal

Explanation:

distance r = 1.5 m

power P = 700 W

the radiation pressure is given as

Pr = P/A*c

where

area of the surface A = 4πr^2

calculate for A

speed of light is c = 3×10^8  m/s

plugging above values in equation above gives

Pr = 3.30 x 10^-7 Pascal
