An electromagnetic wave of intensity II falls on a surface kept in vacuum and exerts radiation pressure pp on it. Which of the following are true? a. Radiation pressure is I/cI/c if the wave is totally absorbed b. Radiation pressure is I/cI/c if the wave is totally reflected c. Radiation pressure is 2I/c2I/c if the wave is totally reflected d. Radiation pressure is in the range I/c<p<2I/cI/c < p < 2I/c for real surfaces
