A helium-neon laser of the type often found in physics labs has a beam power of 5.00 mW at a wavelength of 633 nm. The beam is focused by lens to circular spot whose effective diameter may be taken to be equal to 2.00 wavelengths Calculate: a) the intensity of the focused beam b) the radiation pressure exerted on a tiny perfectly absorbing sphere whose diameter is that of the focal spot.
c) the force exerted on this sphere.
d) the magnitude of the acceleration impartedtoit, ssume sphere density of 5 x 10³ kg/m
