assume the helium-neon lasers commonly used in student physics laboratories have power outputs of 0.35 mw. (a) if such a laser beam is projected onto a circual spot 1.00 mm in in diameter , what its intensity? (b) find the peak magnetic field strenght (c) find the peak electric field streght

Respuesta :

Intensity of laser if it is projected onto a circular spot 1.00mm in diameter is 445w/m^2, the peak magnetic field strength is 1.9x10-6T and the peak electric field strength is 560V/m.

Given the helium-neon lasers have power outputs of (P) = 0.35mW

diameter  (d) = 1mm

Then radius (r) = 0.5x10-3m

We know that intensity (I) = power/area = P/πr^2

(a) I = 0.35x10-3/π(0.5x10-3)^2 = 445w/m^2

(b) We know average intensity (I0) = cB0^2/2µ0 where B0 is the magnetic field, c is the speed of light then B0 = √2µ0I0/C

B0 = √2x4πx10-7x445/3x10^8 = √372.6x10-14 = 1.9x10-6T

(c) We know that E/B = c where E is the electric field

E = Bxc = 1.9x10-6x3x10^8 = 560V/m
