A helium neon laser emits red light of wavelength 632.8 nm,
which is obtained when neon atoms move from level 5s to level 3p.
Given is a tube that contains 0.25 moles of a helium-neon mix, of
which 15% are neon atoms. Also given is that while the laser is
active, around 2% of the neon atoms are located at one of the two
given energy levels at any time.
a) what is the difference in energy between levels 5s...

The polarization of a helium-neon laser can change with time.
The light from a 1.5 mW laser is initially horizontally polarized;
as the laser warms up, the light changes to be vertically
polarized. Suppose the laser beam passes through a polarizer whose
axis is 33 ∘ from horizontal.
By what percent does the light intensity transmitted through the
polarizer decrease as the laser warms up?
Express your answer using two significant figures.

The polarization of a helium-neon laser can change with time.
The light from a laser is initially horizontally polarized; as the
laser warms up, the light changes to be vertically polarized.
Suppose the laser beam passes through a polarizer whose axis is 50
∘ from horizontal.
By what percent does the light intensity transmitted through the
polarizer change as the laser warms up?
