Refraction is the bending of the waves which is result of the fact that different parts of the wave reach the water with different speeds because of the angle approaching the shore.

<span>The wave refraction disperses the wave energy in quiet water areas and sand is deposited.<span>  </span></span>

A 1050 W carbon-dioxide laser emits light with a wavelength of 10μm into a 3.0-mm-diameter laser beam. What force does the laser
avanturin [10]

The force exerted by the laser beam on a completely absorbing target is 3.5 \times 10^{-6} \ N.

The given parameters;

  • <em>power of the laser light, P = 1050 W</em>
  • <em>wavelength of the emitted light, λ = 10 μm </em>

The speed of the emitted laser light is given as;

v = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

The force exerted by the laser beam on a completely absorbing target is calculated as follows;

P = Fv

F = \frac{P}{v} \\\\F = \frac{1050}{3\times 10^8} \\\\F = 3.5 \times 10^{-6} \ N

Thus, the force exerted by the laser beam on a completely absorbing target is 3.5 \times 10^{-6} \ N.

Early humans used rocks as tools to make other things as well as to construct buildings. Why was it better for them to use rocks
babymother [125]
Wood isn't as tough as rock. Wood also breaks down in weather and cracks under pressure. Plus rocks were more accessible.
