High-power lasers are used to cut and weld materials by focusing the laser beam to a very small spot. this is like using a magnifying lens to focus the sun's light to a small spot that can burn things. as an engineer, you have designed a laser cutting device in which the material to be cut is placed 7.0cm behind the lens. you have selected a high-power laser with a wavelength of 1.06 \mum. (this distance and wavelength are both very typical values.) your calculations indicate that the laser must be focused to a 7.0\mum-diameter spot in order to have sufficient power to make the cut. what is the minimum diameter of the lens you must install? express your answer with the appropriate units.

Acoal-fired plant generates 600 mw of electric power. the plant uses 4.8 x 10^6 kg of coal each day, and the heat of combustion of coal is 3.3x 10^7 j/kg. the steam that drives the turbines is at a temperature of 300° c, and the exhaust water is at 37° c. (a) what is the overall efficiency of the plant for generating electric power? (b) how much thermal energy is exhausted each day? (c) what is the change in entropy of the universe for this heat engine? (d) using the same heat reservoirs, what is the maximum possible (carnot) efficiency for a heat engine?
