Concept explainers

Compton effect

The incoming photons' energy must be in the range of an X-ray frequency to generate the Compton effect. The electron does not lose enough energy that reduces the wavelength of scattered photons towards the visible spectrum. As a result, with visible lights, the Compton effect is missing.

Recoil Velocity

The amount of backward thrust or force experienced by a person when he/she shoots a gun in the forward direction is called recoil velocity. This phenomenon always follows the law of conservation of linear momentum.

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?

One idea for exploring distant star systems is to use a laser-pushed light sail to propel tiny probes out of our solar system. The basic idea is that an Earth-based laser is aimed at the light sail of the probe, and the radiation pressure causes the probe to accelerate. Suppose a 150-kW laser array with a beam cross-section of 0.012 m2 is incident on the perfectly reflecting light sail of a 0.075 kg probe. a. What is the radiation pressure on the probe due to the laser? b. Assuming all of the laser light is incident on the light sail perpendicular to the plane of the sail, what is the acceleration of the probe? (Make the admittedly terrible assumption that the only significant force on the probe is from the radiation pressure). c. Using your answer to part b, and assuming the probe is initially at rest, how long in years would it take for the probe to travel one light year (this is the distance light travels in vacuum in one year), and how fast would it be moving once it travels that…
