[Collimated beam]. The beam from a 7 mWX laser has a cross-section area of \(1\mathrm{~mm}^{2}\).
(a) How much one minute?
(b) How much energy is contained in a 1-meter long portion of this beam?
(c) What is the (average) energy density (in \(\mathrm{J}/\mathrm{m}^{3}\)) in this beam?
(d) What is the intensity (in \(\mathrm{W}/\mathrm{m}^{2}\)) of this beam at a point 1 meter from the laser?
(e) What is the amplitude of the magnetic field at this point?
(f) What is the amplitude of the electric field at this point?
(g) At one instant, the magnetic field points in the \(+y \)-direction. If the beam is propagating in the \(+x \) direction, what is the direction of the electric field at that point?
