Speed only requires distance. Velocity requires direction.

AS speed is scalar quantity and have only magnitude of distance covered .

But velocity is a vector quantity.To describe completely direction is also required alongwith magnitude of distance.

What is the intensity in W/m2 of a laser beam used to burn away cancerous tissue that, when 85.0% absorbed, puts 470 J of energy

Advocard [28]

Answer:

26036485.6433 W/m²

Explanation:

E= Energy = 470 J

t = Time = 4 seconds

d = Diameter = 2.6 mm

Power is given by

$P=\dfrac{E}{t}$

Intensity is given by

$I=\dfrac{P}{\pi r^2}\\\Rightarrow 0.85I=\dfrac{E}{t\dfrac{\pi}{4} d^2}\\\Rightarrow I=\dfrac{470}{0.85\times 4\times \dfrac{\pi}{4}\times (2.6\times 10^{-3})^2}\\\Rightarrow I=26036485.6433\ W/m^2$

The intensity of the laser beam is 26036485.6433 W/m²

Sedbober [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Use the one-dimensional equation

$v_f=v_0+at$ where vf is the final velocity of the dog, v0 is the initial velocity of the dog, a is the acceleration of the dog, and t is the time it takesto reach that final velocity. For us:
