Explanation:
A solid state laser contains a cavity like structure fitted with spherical mirrors or plane mirrors at the end filled with a rigidly bonded crystal. It uses solid as the medium. It uses glass or crystalline materials.
It is known that active medium used for this type of laser is a solid material. This lasers are pumped optically by means of a light source which is used as a source of energy for the laser. The solid materials gets excited by absorbing energy in the form of light from the light source. Here the pumping source is light energy.
Answer:
a)
, b) 
Explanation:
a) The counterflow heat exchanger is presented in the attachment. Given that cold water is an uncompressible fluid, specific heat does not vary significantly with changes on temperature. Let assume that cold water has the following specific heat:

The effectiveness of the counterflow heat exchanger as a function of the capacity ratio and NTU is:

The capacity ratio is:



Heat exchangers with NTU greater than 3 have enormous heat transfer surfaces and are not justified economically. Let consider that
. The efectiveness of the heat exchanger is:


The real heat transfer rate is:




The exit temperature of the hot fluid is:




The log mean temperature difference is determined herein:



The heat transfer surface area is:



Length of a single pass counter flow heat exchanger is:



b) Given that tube wall is very thin, inner and outer heat transfer areas are similar and, consequently, the cold side heat transfer coefficient is approximately equal to the hot side heat transfer coefficient.

I dont really know, I am sorry, but I am going to ask my teacher
You can get hurt if u don’t use it properly.
