A totally reflect
Answer :
The weight of the mirror is supported by the light.
The weight of mirror =mg.
Force exerted on mirror is, as mirror is fully reflecting and 30% of light which is passed through the lens is used
From equation 1 of question 6 we can write
we light fall at angle θ on mirror
taking derivative of above equation and putting θ =0 as perpendicular it is falling we get
Where =power and
=force ,c =speed of light.
∴ we get
Force =
∴ The force exerted by light is = .
And the power of light which is used is only 30% of original
→ for mirror to be in equilibrium the downward force and upward force must be equal.
The weight acting downwards = the force exerted by light
Weight acting downwards =Mg
Force exerted by light=
As only 30% of light is fall on mirror, therefore only 30% of the power is in use.
Force exerted by light=
Where M= mass,
g = acceleration due to gravity.
Putting the values,
20×× 10=2
.
Hence, power is ==100MW.
