An electromagnetic wave incident on the object exerts forces on the charged particles, in accordance with the Lorentz force. These forces do work on the particles of the object, increasing its energy, as discussed in the previous section. The energy that sunlight carries is a familiar part of every warm sunny day.

Pressure is rate of change of momentum (i.e. force) per unit area.

In the expressions for J and for P, the power of cosθ is even (0 and 2 respectively) and one can see both physically and mathematically that neither of them is zero for isotropic radiation. One the other hand, the expression for F has an odd power of cosθ, and it is therefore zero for isotropic radiation, as expected.
