How many particles are present in a closed container if the energy it contains is 98998.19J, and the diatomic oxygen gas is moving at a velocity of 26.52m/s? Use only the whole number for the value of atomic mass unit. Express your answer in proper scientific notation.
1.10. A beam of light with \ = 660 nm is reflected off a surface. The incident beam is normal to the
surface. If 1% of its energy is lost in the reflection, what is the change in momentum of the
reflected photons? How many photons must impact the surface per second if the intensity of
the source is 3 × 104 W/m²? Find the total change in momentum affecting that surface.

- You are asked to design a spectral filter that practically removes 99.0% of the low energy photons in an X-ray beam. Such photons contribute to the patient dose without contributing to the image and are defined as no more than 1% of these photons making it to the other side of the patient. Assume a patient can be modelled as a 20cm thick homogenous object with linear attenuation coefficients as shown below in Table 1.

Any random errors in the calibration will usually become Systematic errors in the experiment itself. To illustrate this effect, consider an exper- iment on the Zeeman effect, in which a magnetic field causes a tiny shift in the 4.27. frequency of light given out by an atom. This shift can be measured using a Fabry- Perot interferometer, which consists of two parallel reflecting surfaces a distance d apart (where d is typically a couple of millimeters). To use the interferometer, one must know the distance d; that is, one must calibrate the instrument by measuring d. A convenient way to make this measurement is to send light of an accurately known wavelength A through the interferometer, which produces a series of interfer- reference marks fringes wavelength is sent through a Fabry-Perot interferometer, it pro- Figure 4.3.
