Get started for freeLaser vision correction often uses an excimer laser that produces electromagnetic radiation. This wavelength is extremely strongly absorbed by the cornea and ablates it in a manner that reshapes the cornea to correct vision defects. Explain how the strong absorption helps concentrate the energy in a thin layer and thus give greater accuracy in shaping the cornea. Also, explain how this strong absorption limits damage to the lens and retina of the eye.
A radar used to detect the presence of aircraft receives a pulse that has reflected off an object after it was transmitted. What is the distance from the radar station to the reflecting object?
In an MRI scan, a higher magnetic field requires higher frequency radio waves to resonate with the nuclear type whose density and location is being imaged. What effect does going to a larger magnetic field have on the most efficient antenna to broadcast those radio waves? Does it favor a smaller or larger antenna?
(a) What is the wavelength of 100 MHz radio waves used in an MRI unit? (b) If the frequencies are swept over a range centered on 100MHz , what is the range of wavelengths broadcast?
Explain why people who have the lens of their eye removed because of cataracts are able to see low-frequency ultraviolet.
