What reading level is Radiation book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Effect of Light Pressure in Astronomy. Forces due to light pressure are so small that we should not expect to be able to detect their effects on astronomi- cal bodies, and certainly we cannot hope to observe them in the large bodies of our system.
The pressure of the sunlight on the whole surface of the earth is about 75, 000 tons weight. This does not sound small until we compare it with the pull of the sun for the earth, which is two hundred million million times as great.
When we consider ve...ry small bodies, however, we find that the pressure of the light may even exceed the gravitational pull, and therefore these small particles will be driven right away from our system.
In order to show that the light pressure becomes more and more important, let us imagine two spheres of the same material, one of which has four times the radius of the other.
Then the weight of the larger one, that is its gravi- tational pull, will be sixty-four times as great as that of the smaller one, while the area, and therefore the light pressure, will be sixteen times as great.
