23) a high school website directs parents to not allow student access to blue laser pointers or allow the students to bring them to school. it includes a video describing the danger inherent in the misuse of all laser pointers particularly the blue laser pointer. why would they claim that blue laser pointers are more of a concern than red laser pointers?

Mainly because of the higher energy of blue light than red light.

In fact, light is made of photons, each one carrying an energy equal to

where h is the Planck constant while f is the frequency of the light.
The frequency of red light is approximately 450 THz, while the frequency of blue light is about 650 Hz. Higher frequency means higher energy, so blue light is more energetic than red light and therefore it can cause more damages than red light.

Efficiency is an act of doing something
