The damage threshold for the retina is 100 W/m². This means that a damage to the retina can occur at an average intensity greater than this. The light coming from a 5.0 mW green laser has a diameter of 1.2 mm. (a) Will this laser exceed the damage threshold for the retina? (b) What are the maximum values of the electric and magnetic fields of the beam coming from this laser? 2.

32. When you use Maxwell's equations to determine electric and magnetic fields, a lot depends on making the “right" choice for the integration path. What happens if you choose the "wrong" path? Do the equations still hold? Consider a parallel-plate capacitor with circular plates, but use a rectan- gular integration path that has two sides parallel to the plates and two sides perpendicular to them, as in Figure P30.32. What do you get? • Figure P30.32 - integration path
