The energy flow per unit time per unit area (S) of an electromagnetic wave has an average value of 749 mW/m2. The wave is incident upon a rectangular area, 1.5 m by 2.0 m, at right angles. The total energy that traverses the area in a time interval of one minute is closest to:
170 J
130 J
270 J
200 J
240 J

Answer:

The energy flow per unit time per unit area (S) of an electromagnetic wave has an average value of 749 mW/m2. The wave is incident upon a rectangular area, 1.5 m by 2.0 m, at right angles. The total energy that traverses the area in a time interval of one minute is closest to:

270 J

Hope this provides some insight!
