$A$ plane electromagnetic wave is incident on a plane surface of area $A$ normally,and is perfectly reflected. If energy $E$ strikes the surface in time $t$,then the average pressure exerted on the surface is ($c=$ speed of light).

  • A
    $0$
  • B
    $\frac{E}{Atc}$
  • C
    $\frac{2E}{Atc}$
  • D
