A LASIK vision correction system uses a laser that emits 10-ns-long pulses of light, each with 2.5 mJ of energy. The laser is focused to a 0.85-mm-diameter circle. (a) What is the average power of each laser pulse? (b) What is the electric field strength of the laser light at the focus point?

Mammography is an x-ray imaging procedure for breast cancer diagnosis and screening. Assume that 20ke V x-ray is used in mammography. Also assume that the breast of a patient is 6 cm in thickness (soft tissue), and the propagation speed of x-ray photons in soft tissue is about the same as in vacuum. How long will it take for x- ray photons to travel through the breast?

The company where you work has obtained and stored five lasers in a supply room. You have been asked to determine the intensity of the electromagnetic radiation produced by each laser. The lasers are marked with specifications, but unfortunately different information is given for each laser: Laser A: power = 2.6 W; diameter of cylindrical beam = 2.6 mm Laser B: amplitude of electric field = 480 V/m Laser C: amplitude of magnetic field = 8.7 x 10-6 T Laser D: diameter of cylindrical beam = 1.8 mm; force on totally reflecting surface = 6.0 x 10-8 N Laser E: average energy density in beam = 3.0 x 10-7 J/m3 Calculate the intensity for each laser, and rank the lasers in order of increasing intensity. Assume that the laser beams have uniform intensity distributions over their cross sections.

A laser pointer emits a cylindrical beam of light in the air of wavelength 633 nm , power 30 milliwatts and beam diameter 2mm . Ignoringng spreading of the beam , the peak amplitude E0 of the electric field , ( in volts/metre) is :  give answer to a decimal

Current Attempt in Progress The power radiated by the sun is 3.9 × 10²6 W. The earth orbits the sun in a nearly circular orbit of radius 1.5 × 10¹¹ m. The earth's axis of rotation is tilted by 23.4° relative to the plane of the orbit (see the drawing), so sunlight does not strike the equator perpendicularly. What power strikes a 0.29-m² patch of flat land at the equator at point Q?
