Optical tweezers use light from a laser to move single atoms and molecules around. Suppose the intensity of light from the tweezers is 1000 W/m², the same as the intensity of sunlight at the surface of the Earth.
(a) What is the pressure on an atom if light from the tweezers is totally absorbed?
Pa
-27
-29
(b) If this pressure were exerted on a tritium atom, what would be its acceleration? (The mass of a tritium atom is 5.01 x 10- kg. Assume the cross-sectional area of the laser beam is 6.65 x 10-
m/s²
m².)
104 In Fig. 33-77, an albatross
glides at a constant 15 m/s horizon-
tally above level ground, moving in
a vertical plane that contains the
Sun. It glides toward a wall of height
h = 2.0 m, which it will just barely
clear. At that time of day, the angle
of the Sun relative to the ground is Figure 33-77 Problem 104.
e = 30°. At what speed does the
shadow of the albatross move (a) across the level ground and
then (b) up the wall? Suppose that later a hawk happens to glide
along the same path, also at 15 m/s. You see that when its shadow
reaches the wall, the speed of the shadow noticeably increases.
(c) Is the Sun now higher or lower in the sky than when the alba-
tross flew by earlier? (d) If the speed of the hawk's shadow on
the wall is 45 m/s, what is the angle 0 of the Sun just then?

A 1.00-m² solar panel on a satellite that keeps the panel oriented perpendicular to radiation arriving from the Sun absorbs 1.40 kJ of
energy every second. The satellite is located at 1.00 AU from the Sun. (The Earth-Sun distance is approximately 1.00 AU.) How long
would it take an identical panel that is also oriented perpendicular to the incoming radiation to absorb the same amount of energy, if it
were on an interplanetary exploration vehicle 2.85 AU from the Sun?

- The spectrum of a star is used to measure its radial velocity with respect to the Sun, the component of the star's velocity vector that is pa rallel to a vector connecting the star's centre to the centre of the Sun. The measurement relies on the Doppler effect, in which rad iation is shiftedin frequency when the source is moving towards or away from the observer. When a star emitting electromagnetic radiation of frequency v moves with a speed s relative to an observer, the observer detects radiation of f requency vreceding, = vf or vapproaching = v/f, where f = {(1 - s/c)/(1 + s/c)}1/2 and c is the speed of light.
