Answer:

The correct option is  D

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The maximum electric field strength is  E = 1.0 *10^{11} \  V/m

   The  area is  A = 5.0 \ mm^2  = 5.0 *10^{-6} \  m^2

Generally the force the laser applies is mathematically represented as

       F = \epsilon_o * E ^2 * A

Here  \epsilon_o = 8.85*10^{-12} C/(V \cdot m)

      F =  8.85*10^{-12}  * (1.0 *10^{11}) ^2 * 5.00*10^{-6 }

=>   F =  4.43 *10^{5} \ N

A visible light has a wavelength of 727.3 nm. Determine its frequency, energy per photon, and color.
Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

f=4.12\times 10^{14}\ Hz and E=2.73\times 10^{-19}\ J

Explanation:

The wavelength of a visible light is 727.3 nm.

727.3\ nm=727.3 \times 10^{-9}\ m

The formula is as follows :

c=f\lambda

f is the frequency of the visible light

f=\dfrac{c}{\lambda}\\\\f=\dfrac{3\times 10^8}{727.3 \times 10^{-9}}\\\\f=4.12\times 10^{14}\ Hz

Energy of a photon is given by :

E = hf, h is Planck's constant

E=6.63\times 10^{-34}\times 4.12\times 10^{14}\\\\E=2.73\times 10^{-19}\ J

Red color has a frequency of 4.12\times 10^{14}\ Hz and energy per photon is 2.73\times 10^{-19}\ J.

</span> The atmosphere is heated both by the Sun and by the Earth's surface. Water radiates heat differently than land, so the air temperature over the ocean is usually different than the air temperature over land. <span>
The difference in air temperature over land compared to over water causes convection currents in the atmosphere. How would a person at the beach experience these convection currents? 
</span>They would feel that the water is cold.

NOT:
They would feel the heat of the Sun.
They would feel that the sand is hot.
<span>They would feel wind as the air moves.</span>

A bicyclist is traveling at +25m/s when he begins to decelerate at -4m/s2. How fast is he traveling after 5 seconds
kotegsom [21]

Answer:

+5m/s

Explanation:

When doing the math we figure out that e is going to be slowing down at -4m/s² for 5 seconds. In total he is slowing down -20m/s which we take from the total speed of +25m/s to get his current new speed.
