Reference no: EM13535295

Consider an isolated hydrogen atom of mass 1.66x10^(-27) kg.Let an upwardly directed laser beam emitting 1 eV photons be focused in such a way that the full momentum of each of its photons is transferred to the atom. Find the average upward force on the atom provided by one photon striking each second.
