A posterior capsulotomy is a non-invasive laser procedure to eliminate the cloudiness that occasionally interferes with a patient's vision after cataract surgery. For this procedure a Nd:YAG laser with pulse duration of 30 ns is focused to 50 – 100 µm in diameter on the posterior capsule to cut a thin membrane which has become cloudy over time. Estimate the pulse energy necessary to achieve optical breakdown during this treatment, because otherwise all laser energy will be absorbed by the retina and other tissues lying underneath.

Q1) Two identical pucks collide on an air hockey table. One puck was originally at rest. If the incoming puck has a speed of 6.50 m/s and scatters to an angle of 30.0º,what is the speed of the second puck after the collision?
(You may use the result that θ1−θ2=90º for elastic collisions of objects that have identical masses.)
Q2)A block of mass m = 3.0 kg, moving on a frictionless surface with a speed 2.9 m/s makes a perfectly elastic collision with a block of mass M at rest. After the collision, the 3.0 kg block recoils with a speed of 0.8 m/s. In Fig. 1, the mass M (in kg) is closest to:

Two cars start from rest at a red stop light. When the light turns green, both cars accelerate forward. The blue car accelerates uniformly at a rate of 4.7 m/s2 for 3.8 seconds. It then continues at a constant speed for 8.7 seconds, before applying the brakes such that the car’s speed decreases uniformly coming to rest 212 meters from where it started. The yellow car accelerates uniformly for the entire distance, finally catching the blue car just as the blue car comes to a stop.
1. How fast is the blue car going 2.7 seconds after it
starts?
2. How fast is the blue car going 10.2 seconds after it starts?
3. How far does the blue car travel before its brakes are applied to slow down?
4. What is the acceleration of the blue car once the brakes are applied?
5. What is the total time the blue car is moving?
6. What is the acceleration of the yellow car?

A skilled volleyball player uses elbow motion (as well as shoulder motion) in a jump serve. With her shoulder positioned and maintained in flexion (about 100 degrees), a server initially starts the preparatory phase by flexing the elbow. At this time, the angular velocity of the elbow is 800 deg/s in flexion (positive) direction. As the server moves to strike the ball, the elbow undergoes extension, and immediately before the strike with the ball, the elbow’s angular velocity is 1500 deg/s in extension (negative direction). This change in angular velocity at the elbow joint occurs in 0.3 seconds. Which of the following statements is/are true about the angular acceleration of the elbow joint? Select statement(s) that is/are true. [1 pt.]
Group of answer choices
The elbow's angular acceleration is a positive value
The elbow's angular acceleration is a negative value
The elbow joint movement is speeding up
The elbow joint movement is slowing down

acceleration at the location OF Mars, provided by the Sun (mass of
the Sun is 1.99∙1030 kg, and the
radius of Mars’ orbit is 2.28∙1011 m)? (c) If it takes Mars 687

A vertical spring with k = 490 N/m is standing on the ground. You are holding a 5.8 kg block just above the spring, not quite touching it.
(a) How far does the spring compress if you let go of the block
suddenly?
m
(b) How far does the spring compress if you slowly lower the block
to the point where you can remove your hand without disturbing
it?
0.116 m is the answer I got and know how to get
(c) Why are your two answers different?
I think it is because one of them includes kinetic energy and the other doesn't

1) Suppose you have particle on a ring with the wavefunction1:
?_m(?) = 1/(sqrt(2pi)) * e^(im(?))
(m = 0, ±1, ±2, …)
a. Do you know anything about where the particle is on the ring? Does
m matter in this determination?
b. Do you know the angular momentum exactly?
2) Suppose the same particle were described with the wavefunction2:
?_m (?) = 1/(sqrt(2pi)) * cos (m?)
(m = 0, ±1, ±2, …)
c. Now do you know anything about where the particle is on the ring?
Does m matter in this?
d. Do you know the angular momentum exactly?
e. Re-write your wavefunction2 in terms of exponential functions and
use this to explain your answer to d.
