An instructor’s laser pointer produces a beam of light with a circular cross section of diameter 0.900 mm and a total power outp

ut of 4.00 mW. The beam size stays nearly constant when the instructor uses the laser pointer in the classroom. What is the amplitude E 0 of the electric field of the laser’s light? E 0 = N/C What is the amplitude B 0 of the magnetic field of the laser’s light? B 0 = T What is the average energy density u ave of the laser’s light? u ave J/m 3

Answer:

E_0 = 2180.53N/C.

B_0 = 7.27*10^{-6}T.

U_{avg} = 4.2*10^{-5}J/m^3.

Explanation:

The Intensity I of the beam is

I = P /A

The diameter of the beam is 0.900mm; therefore, the area is

A = \pi( \dfrac{0.900*10^{-3}}{2} )^2

A = 6.36*10^{-7}m^2

and since P = 4.00*10^{-3}W, the intensity of the beam is

I = \dfrac{4.00*10^{-3}W}{6.36*10^{-7}m^2}

\boxed{I = 6289.3W/m^2.}

Now, the intensity I is related to E_0 by the relation

I = \dfrac{E_0^2}{2\mu_0 c}

solving for E_0 we get

E_0 = \sqrt{2\mu_0 c I}

putting in the numbers we get:

E_0 = \sqrt{2(1.26*10^{-6}) (3*10^8) (6289.3)}

\boxed{E_0 = 2180.53N/C.}

The amplitude of magnetic field B_0 is related to E_0 by

B_0 = \dfrac{E_0}{c}

putting in numerical values we get:

B_0 = \dfrac{2180.53}{3*10^8}

\boxed{B_0 = 7.27*10^{-6}T. }

The average energy density of the laser light is

U_{avg} = \epsilon_0 E_0^2

U_{avg} = (8.85*10^{-12}) (2180.53)^2

\boxed{U_{avg} = 4.2*10^{-5}J/m^3.}

The airplane is flying with a constant velocity. Which force acting on the airplane below represents the friction from air resis
tankabanditka [31]

The correct answer to the question is  C i.e C represents the friction from air resistance.

EXPLANATION:

Before coming into any conclusion, first we have to understand friction.

The friction is the opposing force which acts tangentially between two bodies in contact when there is a relative motion between them.

The air resistance is that frictional force which is provided by the air to the moving body through it. Hence, the friction from air resistance will be directed opposite to the motion of the body.

In the given diagram, the airplane is going horizontally. The force A acts in forward direction while force C acts in backward direction. The forces B and D are acting vertically.  There is no motion in vertical direction. Hence, the net force of A and C will cause the airplane to move.

As the plane is moving along the direction of A, the frictional force must act along the direction of C.

A .5 kg air puck moves to the right at 3 m/s, colliding with a 1.5kg air puck that is moving to the left at 1.5 m/s.
Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Total momentum of the system before the collision

.5 x 3 - 1.5 x 1.5 = -0.75 kg m/s towards the left

If v be the velocity of the stuck pucks

momentum after the collision = 2 v

Applying conservation of momentum

2 v = -  .75

v =  - .375 m /s

Let after the collision v be the velocity of .5 kg puck

total momentum after the collision

.5 v + 1.5 x .231 = .5v +.3465

Applying conservation of momentum law

.5 v +.3465 = - .75

v = - 2.193 m/s

2 ) To verify whether the collision is elastic or not , we verify whether the kinetic energy is conserved or not.

Kinetic energy before the collision

= 2.25 + 1.6875

=3.9375 J

kinetic energy after the collision

= .04 + 1.2 =1.24 J

So kinetic energy is not conserved . Hence collision is not elastic.

3 ) Change in the momentum of .5 kg

1.5 - (-1.0965 )

= 2.5965

Average force applied = change in momentum / time

= 2.5965 / 25 x 10⁻³

= 103.86 N

What is brownion motion
Alex777 [14]

Answer: Brownion motion is the erratic random movement of microscopic particles in a fluid, as a result of continuous bombardment from molecules of the surrounding medium.

Explanation:

Brownian motion is the random movement of particles in a fluid due to their collisions with other atoms or molecules.
