1. From experimental measurements it resulted that during the scattering of X-rays incident on a metal surface, the change in wave for the scattering angle θ was 2.00 pm (1 pm = 10-12 m). What is the cosine of the scattering angle?
Correct Answer: A
2. What is the force exerted by the light pressure on a 20 cm2 black surface if the intensity of light is 0.6 W/m2 and it is perpendicular to the surface?
Correct Answer: C
3. Experiments show that when a perpendicular monochromatic light ray was incident on a glass surface of reflection coefficient r = 0.8, the pressure of light was 10-7 Pa. Calculate the value of light intensity.
Correct Answer: C
