Homework Statement
A beam of molecular oxygen containing 1010 molecules/cm3 and average speed of 500 m/s strikes (elastic collision) a plate at an angle of 30º with the normal direction.
Calculate the exerted pressure on the plate.
Homework Equations
P = Impluse x Flux
The Attempt at a Solution
I tried to use the equation in the attached file but in this case we have a constant angle so I can´t just simply integrate.
Any help would be appreciated.
