Suppose a certain laser can provide 140 TW of power in 0.96 ns pulses at a wavelength of 0.25 ?m. How much energy is contained in joules in a single pulse?

I will give 5 stars for the correct answer

Solutions

Expert Solution

1 ) A laser can provide a Power P = 140.0 TW

                                                     = 140.0 *10^12 W

   time t = 0.96 ns

              = 0.96*10^-9 s

Energy contained in a single pulse is

                       E   = P * t

                             = 140.0 *10^12 W * 0.96 *10^-9 s

                             = 13.4*10^4 J

Fundamental of power electronics: In a certain application, an unregulated dc input voltage can vary between 18 and 36 V. It is desired to produce a regulated output of 28 V to supply a 2 A load. control circuit automatically adjust D to maintain the constant output voltage and current. All ideal components.  Hence, a converter is needed that is capable of both increasing and decreasing the voltage. Since the input and output voltages are both positive, converters that invert the...

Suppose that 27% of all steel shafts produced by a certain process are nonconforming but can be reworked (rather than having to be scrapped). (a) In a random sample of 167 shafts, find the approximate probability that between 30 and 54 (inclusive) are nonconforming and can be reworked. (b) In a random sample of 167 shafts, find the approximate probability that at least 48 are nonconforming and can be reworked.

Corona: Suppose that all people can transmit the corona virus with a certain probability p to another person without knowing it. Furthermore, assume that wearing a face mask reduces the probability that you transmit the virus to another person to zero but does nothing to protect yourself (both of these assumptions are not true in reality). Catching the virus with probability p gives you a payoff of -100 * p. Wearing a face mask is obviously inconvenient and reduces your...
