Q.

A perfectly reflecting body in shape of a sphere of radius R is placed on a path of parallel light beam of intensity I shown in figure. One end of a spring is attached to centre of sphere and the other end to a rigid wall as shown in figure. Assuming the sphere to be in equilibrium, the spring constant of spring to be K, then compression in spring is

Detailed Solution

For a perfectly reflecting sphere of radius R, the effective area (A) for calculating the force due to reflected light is A=πR2.

From the force equilibrium of the sphere, assuming spring compression to be x0,

Kx0=IAc=IπR2c    x0=πIR2Kc
