LASIK eye surgery uses pulses of laser light to shave off tissue from the cornea, reshaping it. A typical LASIK laser emits a 1.
Fittoniya [83]

Answer:

143 kW

Explanation:

Given that

Diameter of the beam, d = 1 mm

Wavelength of the beam, λ = 193 nm

Time used by the pulse, t = 14 ns

Energy of the pulse, U = 2 mJ

Recall that Power can be mathematically calculated using the relation,

Power = Work Done / Time,

To solve this, we apply the formula

P = U / Δt

P = 2*10^-3 J / 14*10^-9 s

P = 142857 W

P = 143 kW

The density of a block of wood is 694 kg/m3. Its mass is 689 g. We tie the block to the bottom of a swimming pool using a single
Serhud [2]

Answer:

<em>The tension in the string = 2.065 N</em>

Explanation:

From Archimedes principle,

R.d = density of the wood block/density of water = weight of the wood block/Upthrust of the wood block in water.

R.d = D₁/D₂ = W/U

W/U =D₁/D₂.................................. Equation 1

Where W = weight of the wood block, U = upthrust of the wood block in water, D₁ = Density of the wood block, D₂ = Density of water.

Making U the subject of the equation,

U = WD₂/D₁........................... Equation 2

Given: W =  mg = (689/1000)9.8 = 6.75 N,  D₁ = 694 kg/m³, D₂ = 1000 kg/m³.

Substituting these values into equation 2,

U = 6.75(694)/1000

U = 4684.5/1000

U = 4.685 N.

Note: Three forces act on the wood block in the pool. and they are

(i) The weight(W) acting downs

(ii) The upthrust (U) acting upwards,

(iii) The Tension (T) in the string, acting upwards.

Thus,

W = U+T

T = W - U ................................. Equation 3

Where W = 6.75 N, U = 4.685 N

T = 6.75 - 4.685

T = 2.065 N.

T = 2.065 N

<em>Thus the tension in the string = 2.065 N</em>

According to Newton's law of cooling, the rate at which an object's temperature changes is directly proportional to the differen
Kryger [21]

Answer:

dT(t)/dt = k[T5 - T(t)]

Explanation:

Since T(t) represents the temperature of the object and T5 represents the temperature of the surroundings, according to Newton's law of cooling, the rate at which an object's temperature changes is directly proportional to the difference in temperature between the object and the surrounding medium, that is dT(t)/dt ∝ T5 - T(t)

Introducing the constant of proportionality

dT(t)/dt = k[T5 - T(t)]

which is the desired differential equation

2. Below are four velocity vs. time graphs. Which graph represents the motion of an object that
Airida [17]

Answer:

Answer (b)

Explanation:

Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity in time, therefore constant acceleration will be changing velocity in direct proportion to time and will have a linear plot on a velocity/time chart. This eliminates answer (d) which has an increasing acceleration in time

answer (a) has a negative slope so the acceleration would be considered negative

answer (c) has zero slope so acceleration is zero and velocity is constant.

answer (b) has the required positive slope and acceleration
