When a powerful laser is employed in the Earth's atmosphere, the accompanying electric field may ionize the air, transforming it into a plasma that reflects the laser light. Electric breakdown occurs in dry air at 0°C and 1 atm when field amplitudes above around 3:00 Mv/m a). At this maximum intensity, how much Power can a cylindrical beam with a diameter of 4.03 mm deliver? Note Answer must be in W.

- Suppose you need to image the structure of a virus with a diameter of 50 nm. For a sharp image, the wavelength of the probing wave must be 5.0 nm or less. We have seen that, for imaging such small objects, this short wavelength is obtained by using an electron beam in an electron microscope. Why don’t we simply use short-wavelength electromagnetic waves? There’s a problem with this approach: As the wavelength gets shorter, the energy of a photon of light gets greater and could damage or destroy the object being studied.
