Very short pulses of high-intensity laser beams are used to repair detached portions of the retina of the eye. The brief pulses

of energy absorbed by the retina welds the detached portion back into place. In one such procedure, a laser beam has a wavelength of 810 nm and delivers 250 mW of power spread over a circular spot 510 ?m in diameter. The vitreous humor (the transparent fluid that fills most of the eye) has an index of refraction of 1.34.

Answer:

a) U = 0.375 mJ

b) p_rad = 4.08 mPa

c) λ_med = 604 nm ; f_med = 3.7 * 10^14 Hz

d) E_o = 3.04 * 10^4 V / m , B _o = 1.013 *10^-4 Nm/Amp

Explanation:

Given:

λ_air : wavelength = 810 * 10^(-9) m

P: Power delivered = 0.25 W

d : Diameter of circular spot = 0.00051 m

c : speed of light vacuum = 3 * 10^8 m/s

n_air : refraction Index of light in air = 1

n_med : refraction Index of light in medium = 1.34

ε_o : permittivity of free space = 8.85 * 10^-12 C / Vm

part a

The Energy delivered to retina per pulse given that laser pulses are 1.50 ms long:

U = P*t

U = (0.25 ) * (0.0015 )

U = 0.375 mJ

Answer : U = 0.375 mJ

part b

What average pressure would the pulse of the laser beam exert at normal incidence on a surface in air if the beam is fully absorbed?

p_rad = I / c

Where I : Intensity = P / A

p_rad = P / A*c

Where A : Area of circular spot = pi*d^2 / 4

p_rad = 4P / pi*d^2*c

p_rad = 4(0.25) / pi*0.00051^2*(3.0 * 10^8)

p_rad = 0.00408 Pa

Answer : p_rad = 4.08 mPa

part c

What are the wavelength and frequency of the laser light inside the vitreous humor of the eye?

λ_med = n_air*λ_air / n_med

λ_med = (1) * (810 nm) / 1.34

λ_med = 604 nm

f_med = f_air

f_med = c / λ_air

f_med = (3*10^8) / (810 * 10^-9)

f_med = 3.7 * 10^14 Hz

Answer : λ_med = 604 nm ; f_med = 3.7 * 10^14 Hz

d)

What is the electric and magnetic field amplitude in the laser beam?

I = P / A

I = 0.5*ε_o*c*E_o ^2

I = 4P / pi*d^2

Hence, E_o = ( 8 P / ε_o*c*pi*d^2 ) ^ 0.5

E_o = ( 8 * 0.25 / (8.85*10^-12) * (3*10^8) * π * (0.00051)^2) ^ 0.5

E_o = 3.04 * 10^4 V / m

For maximum magnetic field strength:

B_o = E_o / c

B_o = 3.04 * 10^4 / (3*10^8)

B _o = 1.013 *10^-4 Nm/Amp

Answer: E_o = 3.04 * 10^4 V / m , B _o = 1.013 *10^-4 Nm/Amp

Show that rigid body rotation near the Galactic center is consistent with a spherically symmetric mass distribution of constant

irakobra [83]

To solve this problem we will use the concepts related to gravitational acceleration and centripetal acceleration. The equality between these two forces that maintains the balance will allow to determine how the rigid body is consistent with a spherically symmetric mass distribution of constant density. Let's start with the gravitational acceleration of the Star, which is

$a_g = \frac{GM}{R^2}$

Here

$M = \text{Mass inside the Orbit of the star}$

$R = \text{Orbital radius}$

$G = \text{Universal Gravitational Constant}$

Mass inside the orbit in terms of Volume and Density is

$M =V \rho$

Where,

V = Volume

$\rho =$ Density

Now considering the volume of the star as a Sphere we have

$V = \frac{4}{3} \pi R^3$

Replacing at the previous equation we have,

$M = (\frac{4}{3}\pi R^3)\rho$

Now replacing the mass at the gravitational acceleration formula we have that

$a_g = \frac{G}{R^2}(\frac{4}{3}\pi R^3)\rho$

$a_g = \frac{4}{3} G\pi R\rho$

For a rotating star, the centripetal acceleration is caused by this gravitational acceleration. So centripetal acceleration of the star is

$a_c = \frac{4}{3} G\pi R\rho$

At the same time the general expression for the centripetal acceleration is

$a_c = \frac{\Theta^2}{R}$

Where $\Theta$ is the orbital velocity

Using this expression in the left hand side of the equation we have that

$\frac{\Theta^2}{R} = \frac{4}{3}G\pi \rho R^2$

$\Theta = (\frac{4}{3}G\pi \rho R^2)^{1/2}$

$\Theta = (\frac{4}{3}G\pi \rho)^{1/2}R$

Considering the constant values we have that

$\Theta = \text{Constant} \times R$

$\Theta \propto R$

As the orbital velocity is proportional to the orbital radius, it shows the rigid body rotation of stars near the galactic center.

So the rigid-body rotation near the galactic center is consistent with a spherically symmetric mass distribution of constant density

You are traveling 70 mph (31.3 m/s) and slam on the brakes to avoid hitting another car. How far do you travel if it takes you 8

Arlecino [84]

You traveled a distance of 620.075 meters if it takes you 8.5 seconds to stop.

<u>Given the following data:</u>

Initial velocity, U = 31.3 m/s

Time, t = 8.5 seconds.

We know that acceleration due to gravity (a) for an object is equal to 9.8 meter per seconds square.

To find the distance traveled, we would use the second equation of motion:

Mathematically, the second equation of motion is given by the formula;

$S = ut + \frac{1}{2} at^2$

Where:

S is the distance travelled.

u is the initial velocity.

a is the acceleration.

t is the time measured in seconds.

Substituting the parameters into the formula, we have;

$S = 31.3(8.5) + \frac{x}{y} (9.8)(8.5^2)\\\\S = 266.05 + 4.9(72.25)\\\\S = 266.05 + 354.025$

<em>Distance, S</em><em> = </em><em>620.075 meters.</em>

Therefore, you traveled a distance of 620.075 meters if it takes you 8.5 seconds to stop.
