Answer:

Consciousness is a psychological construct because it is believed to exist, but we are unable to physically measure it, so descriptions are 'constructed' to explain it. ... The more aware we are of our thoughts, feelings, perceptions and surroundings, the higher the level of consciousness.

Answer:

the fractional loss per pass =0.053

the decay time of the cavity =11 ns

Explanation:

laser is an acronym for Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation and it has lot of military applications : basically ranging from target acquisition, fire control, and training. It is also being used in LIDAR communications, radar systems , laser guided landing systems, laser pointers, holography, photography, guidance systems, scanning machines, metal working, and medicine.

the fractional loss per pass= $\alpha l - ln(R_1R_2)^ \frac {1}{2}$

but no excited state absorption, therefore $\alpha$ is 0

$= - ln(R_1R_2)^ \frac {1}{2}\\\\=- ln(0.999* 0.9)^ \frac {1}{2}$

=0.053

b) the decay time of the cavity:

$T_c = \frac{nd}{cl_f}=\frac{1,76 * 10 *10^-2}{3 *10^8 *0.53}$

=1.1 *10^-8 seconds

=11 ns

Test your prediction through calculation for the situations of the clay bob and the bouncy ball. Assume each has a mass of 100 g

melamori03 [73]

Answer:

a) Δp = -2.0 kgm / s, b) Δp = -4 kg m / s

Explanation:

In this exercise the change in moment of a ball is asked in two different cases

a) clay ball, in this case the ball sticks to the door and we have an inelastic collision where the final velocity of the ball is zero

Δp = p_f - p₀

Δp = 0 - m v₀

Δp = - 0.100 20

Δp = -2.0 kgm / s

b) in this case we have a bouncing ball, this is an elastic collision, as the gate is fixed it can be considered an object of infinite mass, therefore the final speed of the ball has the same modulus of the initial velocity, but address would count

v_f = - v₀

Δp = p_f -p₀

Δp = m v_f - m v₀

Δp = m (v_f -v₀)

Δp = 0.100 (-20 - 20)

Δp = -4 kg m / s
