Light with an energy flux of $9 \ Wcm^{-2}$ falls on a non-reflecting surface at normal incidence. If the surface has an area of $20 \ cm^2$, the total momentum delivered for complete absorption in one hour is:

  • A
    $2.16 \times 10^{-4} \ kgms^{-1}$
  • B
    $1.16 \times 10^{-3} \ kgms^{-1}$
  • C
    $2.16 \times 10^{-3} \ kgms^{-1}$
  • D
    $3.16 \times 10^{-4} \ kgms^{-1}$
