A pesky 1.5-mg mosquito is annoying you as you attempt to study physics in your room, which is 5.0 m wide and 2.5 m high. You decide to swat the bothersome insect as it flies toward you, but you need to estimate its speed to make a successful hit. (a) What is the maximum uncertainty in the horizontal position of the mosquito? (b) What limit does the Heisenberg uncertainty principle place on your ability to know the horizontal velocity of this mosquito? Is this limitation a serious impediment to your attempt to swat it?
Pulsed dye lasers emit light of wavelength 585 nm in 0.45-ms pulses to remove skin blemishes such as birthmarks. The beam is usually focused onto a circular spot 5.0 mm in diameter. Suppose that the output of one such laser is 20.0 W. (a) What is the energy of each photon, in eV? (b) How many photons per square millimeter are delivered to the blemish during each pulse?
