LASIK eye surgery uses pulses of laser light to shave off tissue from the cornea, reshaping it. A typical LASIK laser emits a 1.

0-mm-diameter laser beam with a wavelength of 193 nm. Each laser pulse lasts 15 ns and contains 1.0 mJ of light energy.(a) What is the power of one laser pulse?(b) During the very brief time of the pulse, what is the intensity of the light wave?

Answer:

a) 6.7 * 10⁴ W  b) 8.5* 10¹⁰ W/m²

Explanation:

a) The power of one laser pulse, by definition of power, is equal to the energy expended during the emission of the pulse, divided by the time during which the energy was present, as follows:

P = ΔE/Δt = 10⁻³ J / 15*10⁻⁹ sec = 6.7* 10⁴ W

b) The intensity, or power density, of the light wave, is just the power that we just calculated in a) divided by the cross-section area traversed by the pulse, which is a circle of 1.0 mm diameter.

So, we can write the following expression:

I = P/A = P / π*(d²/4) = 6.7*10⁴ W /( π*(10⁻³)²/4) m² = 8.5* 10¹⁰ W/m²

A sound wave has a wavelength of 0.450 meters. If its speed in cold air is 330 meters/second, what is the wave's frequency?
faust18 [17]
Most of the information's required are already given in the question. Based on those information's the answer can be easily deduced.
Wavelength of the sound wave = 0.450 meters
Speed of the sound wave = 330 meters per second
We already know
v=f<span>λ
</span>330 = f * 0.450
f = 330/0.450
  = 733.33 hertz
So the frequency of the wave is 733.33 hertz

According to the reading, which of the following is NOT an obstacle to using big data for analysis and decision making? O Poor r
RoseWind [281]

Answer:

B .Limited types of data Insufficient data

Explanation:

To analyse and making decision from big data we have following thing

- Sufficient data

- data analyst

- Accurate data

- data Privacy

- data storage

So, limited data or data that cannot be copied is not and obstacle in data handling. hence option B Limited types of data Insufficient data is correct.

If a car accelerates uniformly from rest to 15 meters
Talja [164]

Answer:

1.125m/s^2

Explanation:

Since acceleration is defined as the rate of change in velocity with respect to time. Mathematically

v^2= u^2+2as

Where a,v,u and s are the acceleration, final velocity, initial velocity and distance respectively.

a = ?

u = 0m/s

v = 15m/s

s = 100m

Substituting the values into the formula above

v^2= u^2+2as

15^2=0^2+2×a×100

225= 0+200a

225= 200a

Divide both sides by 200

225/200 = 200a/200

a= 1.125m/s^2

Hence the acceleration of the car is 1.125m/s^2.

Note that the car accelerated uniformly from rest, that was why the initial velocity was 0m/s
