Very short pulses of high-intensity laser beams are used to repair detached portions of the retina of the eye. The brief pulses

of energy absorbed by the retina welds the detached portion back into place. In one such procedure, a laser beam has a wavelength of 810 nm and delivers 250 mW of power spread over a circular spot 510 ?m in diameter. The vitreous humor (the transparent fluid that fills most of the eye) has an index of refraction of 1.34.

Answer:

a) U = 0.375 mJ

b) p_rad = 4.08 mPa

c) λ_med = 604 nm  ; f_med = 3.7 * 10^14 Hz

d) E_o  = 3.04 * 10^4 V / m , B _o = 1.013 *10^-4 Nm/Amp  

Explanation:

Given:

λ_air : wavelength = 810 * 10^(-9) m

P: Power delivered  = 0.25 W

d : Diameter of circular spot = 0.00051 m

c : speed of light vacuum = 3 * 10^8 m/s

n_air : refraction Index of light in air = 1

n_med : refraction Index of light in medium = 1.34

ε_o : permittivity of free space = 8.85 * 10^-12 C / Vm

part a

The Energy delivered to retina per pulse given that laser pulses are 1.50 ms long:

U = P*t

U = (0.25 ) * (0.0015 )

U = 0.375 mJ

Answer : U = 0.375 mJ

part b

What average pressure would the pulse of the laser beam exert at normal incidence on a surface in air if the beam is fully absorbed?

                   

                                                p_rad = I / c

Where I : Intensity = P / A

                                                p_rad = P / A*c        

Where A : Area of circular spot = pi*d^2 / 4

                                               

                                                 p_rad = 4P / pi*d^2*c  

                              p_rad = 4(0.25) / pi*0.00051^2*(3.0 * 10^8)      

                                                 p_rad = 0.00408 Pa                          

Answer : p_rad = 4.08 mPa

part c

What are the wavelength and frequency of the laser light inside the vitreous humor of the eye?

                                    λ_med =  n_air*λ_air / n_med

                                     λ_med = (1) * (810 nm) / 1.34

                                           λ_med = 604 nm

                                               f_med = f_air

                                          f_med = c /  λ_air

                                 f_med = (3*10^8) / (810 * 10^-9)

                                          f_med = 3.7 * 10^14 Hz

Answer : λ_med = 604 nm  ; f_med = 3.7 * 10^14 Hz

d)

What is the electric and magnetic field amplitude in the laser beam?

                                        I = P / A

                                I  = 0.5*ε_o*c*E_o ^2

                                   I = 4P / pi*d^2

Hence,              E_o = ( 8 P /  ε_o*c*pi*d^2 ) ^ 0.5

E_o = ( 8 * 0.25 / (8.85*10^-12) * (3*10^8) * π * (0.00051)^2) ^ 0.5

                                 E_o  = 3.04 * 10^4 V / m

For maximum magnetic field strength:

                                      B_o = E_o / c

                         B_o = 3.04 * 10^4 / (3*10^8)

                         B _o = 1.013 *10^-4 Nm/Amp      

Answer: E_o  = 3.04 * 10^4 V / m , B _o = 1.013 *10^-4 Nm/Amp

A very long, straight horizontal wire carries a current such that 8.15×1018 electrons per second pass any given point going from
Maksim231197 [3]

Magnetic field 'B' at a distance 'r' from an substantially large conductor carrying current 'i' = (2x10^ -7)('i' ) / r 

Magnetic field 'B' beyond the wire= (2x10^ -7)(8.15x10^18x1.6x10^ - 19 ) /0.046 =5.7 x10^ -12 tesla 

As electrons move from west to east, the conventional current is from east to west. 

By means of Maxwell's right handed corkscrew rule, the way of magnetic field is from south to north.

Calculate the mag-netic field (magnitude and direc-tion) at a point p due to a current i=12.0 a in the wire shown in fig. p28.68
creativ13 [48]

Complete Question

The diagram for this question is shown on the first uploaded image

Answer:

The magnitude is   B= 4.2 *10^ {-6}T , the direction is into the page

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

        The current  is i = 12.0 A

        The radius of arc  bc is r_{bc} = 30.0 \ cm =\frac{30}{100} = 0.3m

        The radius  of arc da is r_{da} = 20.0 \ cm = \frac{20}{100} = 0.20 \ m

        The length of segment cd and ab is = l = 10cm = \frac{10}{100} = 0.10 m

The objective of the solution is to obtain the magnetic field

    Generally magnetic due to the current flowing in the arc is mathematically represented as

             B = \frac{\mu_o I}{4 \pi r}

 Here I is the current

         \mu_o is the permeability of free space with a value of 4\pi *10^{-7}T \cdot m/A

            r is the distance

Considering Arc da

         B_{da} = \frac{\mu_o I}{4 \pi r_{da}} \theta

Where \theta is the angle the arc da makes with the center  from the diagram its value is  \theta = 120^o = 120^o * \frac{\pi}{180} = \frac{2\pi}{3} rad

     Now substituting values into formula for magnetic field for da

                    B_{da} = \frac{4\p *10^{-7} * 12}{4 \pi (0.20)}[\frac{2 \pi}{3} ]

                           = \frac{10^{-7} * 12}{0.20} * [\frac{2 \pi}{3} ]

                   B_{da}= 12.56*10^{-6} T

Looking at the diagram to obtain the direction of the current and using right hand rule then we would obtain the the direction of magnetic field due to da is into the pages of the paper

Considering Arc bc

             B_{bc} = \frac{\mu_o I}{4 \pi r_{bc}} \theta

Substituting value

          B_{bc} = \frac{4 \pi *10^{-7} * 12}{4 \pi (0.30)} [\frac{2 \pi}{3} ]

                B_{bc}= 8.37*10^{-6}T

Looking at the diagram to obtain the direction of the current and using right hand rule then we would obtain the the direction of magnetic field due to bc is out of  the pages of the paper

Since the line joining P to segment bc and da makes angle = 0°

     Then the net magnetic field would be

                 B = B_{da} - B{bc}

                     = 12.56*10^{-6} - 8.37*10^{-6}

                     = 4.2 *10^ {-6}T

       Since B_{da} > B_{bc} then the direction of the net charge would be into the page

The number of gallons of water in a storage tank at time t, in minutes, is modeled by w(t) = 25 − t2 for 0≤t≤5. At what rate, in
Kisachek [45]

Answer:

Rate of change of water will be -6 gallon/minute

Explanation:

We have given water in the tank as the function of time as

w(t)=25-t^2

We have to find the rate of change of water in the tank at t = 3 minute

For rate of change we have to differentiate both side

So \frac{dw}{dt}=0-2t

At t = 3 minute

\frac{dw}{dt}=0-2\times 3=-6gallon/minute
