An industrial CO2 laser produces a beam of radiation with average power of 5.60 kW at a wavelength of 10.6 m.Such a laser can be used to cut steel up to 25 mm thick! The laser light is polarized in the x-direction,travels in the positive z-direction,and is collimated (neither diverging or converging) at a constant diameter of 148 m.The laser light is completely absorbed by small spherical dust particle with diameter of 50 m.What is the force that the laser beam exerts on the dust particle (before it is incinerated!) ?
A) 3.2 * 10-6 N
B) 4.2 * 10-6 N
C) 8.6 * 10-6 N
D) 1.9 * 10-5 N
E) 2.1 * 10-6 N
