View Solution$A$ light bulb of power $100 \ W$ is placed at the centre of a hollow sphere of radius $10 \ cm$. If $66\%$ of the energy is converted into light,then the pressure exerted by the light on the surface of the sphere will be (Assume the surface of the sphere to be perfectly absorbing).
Light falls on a non-reflecting surface normally. If the average force exerted on a surface with area $15 \text{ cm}^2$ during a $20 \text{ minute}$ time interval is $10^{-6} \text{ N}$,then the energy flux (intensity) of light is (Velocity of light $= 3 \times 10^8 \text{ ms}^{-1}$)
