An EM wave of intensity \(I\) falls on a surface kept in a vacuum and exerts radiation pressure \(P\) on it. Which of the following are true?

(a) Radiation pressure is \(\frac{I}{c}\) if the wave is totally absorbed.
(b) Radiation pressure is \(\frac{I}{c}\) if the wave is totally reflected.
(c) Radiation pressure is \(\frac{2I}{c}\) if the wave is totally reflected.
(d) Radiation pressure is in the range \(\frac{I}{c}<P<\frac{2I}{c}\) for real surfaces.
