Light with an average flux of $20 \, W/cm^2$ falls on a non-reflecting surface at normal incidence having a surface area of $20 \, cm^2$. The energy received by the surface during a time span of $1 \, minute$ is $............ \, J$.

Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion $(A)$ and the other is labelled as Reason $(R)$.
Assertion $(A)$: The electromagnetic wave exerts pressure on the surface on which they are allowed to fall.
Reason $(R)$: There is no mass associated with the electromagnetic waves.
In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below:
