Find the compression in the spring with spring constant $K = 5 \ N/m$ which is attached to a metal plate of area $50 \ m^2$. Light of intensity $I = 40 \ MW/m^2$ is incident at an angle of $60^o$ on the metal plate,and the coefficient of reflection is $\rho = 0.5$ for the plate. (in $m$)

Average force exerted on a non-reflecting surface at normal incidence is $2.4 \times 10^{-4} \,N$. If $360 \,W/cm^2$ is the light energy flux during a span of $1$ hour $30$ minutes,then the area of the surface is: (in $\,m^2$)

Light with an intensity of $18 \ W \ m^{-2}$ is incident normally on an opaque surface. If the area of the surface is $20 \ m^2$,calculate the average force exerted on the surface in $30 \ min$.
