answer to one decimal place.)

A beam splitter is an optical device that splits a beam of light - half of the incident light is transmitted through the beam splitter, and half is reflected.
Supposed we could make a beam splitter that reflects only 35% and transmits the other 65% (rather than 50/50). A beam of laser light with wavelength 656 nm is incident on our imaginary 35/65 beam splitter, at an angle of 45°. The beam pulse lasts 1.50 ms, and has a diameter of 0.60 mm. The intensity of the transmitted beam is 3.25 kW/m2.
Draw a clear physics diagram of the problem.
What is the energy of a photon from this laser?
Find the peak Electric field of the reflected beam.
Find the peak Magnetic field of the incident beam.
What color is the laser beam?
What momentum is transferred to the beam splitter by the laser pulse?
