5. Assume an MRI scanner imaging 'H with the following specifications: Bo = 3.0 T. Assume that with the Z-gradient on, the magnetic field strength is B0 at location Z = Zc: a. With a bandwidth of 1500 Hz, what is the gradient strength (G2) that would allow us to image a slice with 0.75 mm thickness? b. Using the gradient calculated in (a), we need to acquire an MR slice with the same slice width and positioned at 2.5 cm above the Zc position (Z = Zc +2.5 cm). What is the required RF excitation pulse center frequency (in MHz) for the slice selection pulse?

2. A satellite orbiting the Earth is powered by photovoltaic (“solar”) panels that convertlight energy to electricity with a conversion rate of 15.0%. Telemetry from the satelliteindicates that the panels are supplying a peak power output of 3.60 kW, and the specificationsof the panels state that they have 16 m^2 of light-collecting surface area. The radius of theSun and its distance from Earth have long been known to be 6.96 ×10^8 m and 1.50 ×10^11m, respectively.

When John broke his arm, the doctor took an x-ray of John’s arm. John had never seen an x-ray before. He asked the doctor how the x-ray was able to show his bones but not his skin and other tissue. Which explanation would the doctor best provide to John? A X-rays have lower energy than visible light and therefore produce a black background behind the bone image. B X-rays have lower frequency than infrared light and therefore penetrates through the bone. C X-rays have higher frequency than gamma rays and therefore pass through skin and bone. D X-rays have higher frequency than visible light and therefore can pass through skin and tissue but not through the bone.
High-Energy Cancer Treatment. Scientists are working on a new technique to kill cancer cells by zapping them with ultrahighenergy (in the range of 1012 W) pulses of light that last for an extremely short time (a few nanoseconds). These short pulses scramble the interior of a cell without causing it to explode, as long pulses would do. We can model a typical such cell as a disk 5.0 um in diameter, with the pulse lasting for 4.0 ns with an average power of 2.0 * 1012 W. We shall assume that the energy is spread uniformly over the faces of 100 cells for each pulse. (a) How much energy is given to the cell during this pulse? (b) What is the intensity (in W/m2) delivered to the cell? (c) What are the maximum values of the electric and magnetic fields in the pulse?
