Q. Which of the following represents the total momentum transferred to a surface by an electromagnetic wave?
✅ Correct Answer: (A)
Total energy transferred/Speed of light
Explanation: If the total energy transferred to a surface in time t is U, then the magnitude of the total momentum delivered to this surface (for complete absorption) is U/c.
