A study of photosynthesis in phytoplankton in the open ocean used short pulses of laser light to trigger photosynthetic reactions. The investigator's system used 0.10 mW pulses of 640 nm laser light of length 200 ps. Required:
How many photons were contained in each pulse?

It's a snowy day and you're pulling a friend along a level road on a sled. you've both been taking physics, so she asks what you think the coefficient of friction between the sled and the snow is. you've been walking at a steady 1.5m/s, and the rope pulls up on the sled at a 32 ∘ angle. you estimate that the mass of the sled, with your friend on it, is 65 kg and that you're pulling with a force of 80 n .
