Optical tweezers use light from a laser to move single atoms and molecules around. Suppose the intensity of light from the tweezers is 1000 W/m2, the same as the intensity of sunlight at the surface of the Earth. Required:
a. What is the pressure on an atom if light from the tweezers is totally absorbed? ?
b. If this pressure were exerted on a tritium atom, what would be its acceleration?

Which statement is true if the refractive index of medium a is greater than that of medium b? a. total internal reflection is possible when light travels from air to medium b to medium a. b. total internal reflection is possible when light travels from medium a to medium b. c. total internal reflection is possible when light travels from medium b to medium a. d. total internal reflection is possible when light travels from air to medium a. e. total internal reflection is possible when light travels from air to medium b.
