A Gaussian beam from a frequency-doubled Nd:YAG laser, with wavelength 532 nm, is measured to have a beam radius of 1.5 mm and 2.5 mm at two points separated by a distance of 1.0 m.

What is the location of the beam waist relative to the 1.6 mm measurement point? Express your answer as a positive distance in units of meters with two significant figures.

Photoelectrons with a maximum speed of 6.50 x 107 m/s are ejected from a surface in the presence of light with a frequency of 6.75 x 1014hz. if the mass of an electron is 9.10 x 10-31 kg, calculate in joules the maximum kinetic energy of a single electron. 3.84 x 10-15 j 1.92 x 10-15 j 5.92 x 10-23 j 3.07 x 10-16 j

2.which choice most accurately explains what happens to the bonds between atoms when water changes to steam, and what becomes of the energy added during this phase change? when water changes to steam bonds between molecules are created. after reaching the boiling point, energy is used to change bond strength and change the kinetic energy of the atoms. when water changes to steam bonds between molecules break apart. after reaching the boiling point, energy is used to break bonds, but does not affect the kinetic energy of the atoms. when water changes to steam bonds between molecules are created. after reaching the boiling point, energy is used to break bonds, but does not affect the kinetic energy of the atoms. when water changes to steam bonds between molecules break apart. after reaching the boiling point, energy is used to change bond strength and change the kinetic energy of the atoms.

What is reflection, what is refraction, and what is diffraction. what some similarities or differences between the three.
