A 654-nm laser whose beam diameter is 0.4 mm points upward. A small, perfectly reflecting spherical particle
Question:
A 654-nm laser whose beam diameter is 0.4 mm points upward. A small, perfectly reflecting spherical particle having a diameter of 10 μm and a density of 0.2 g/cm3 is supported against gravity by the radiation pressure from the laser beam. Determine the power output of this laser.
Step by Step Answer:
We find upward force due to the lase...View the full answer

In Physics, a force is an influence that can change the motion of an object. A force can cause an object with mass to change its velocity, i.e., to accelerate. Force can also be described intuitively as a push or a pull. A force has both magnitude and direction, making it a vector quantity. In this video, the concept of force and torque is demonstrated with the practical application of changing the flat tire of the car.
