For dry air at a temperature of 0°C and at 1 atm of pressure, electric breakdown occurs when the air is subjected to an electric field with amplitude above about 3.00 MV/m. high-power laser is shone up into Earth's atmosphere, and the laser's associated electric field ionizes the air and turns it into a conducting plasma. Assume the conditions of the air are such that an electric field of 3.00 MV/m causes the air to ionize. Required:
a. What will be the intensity (in W/m2) of a laser beam that can produce a field of this magnitude?
b. Assuming the laser is operating at this maximum intensity, what is the power (in W) delivered in a cylindrical beam with a diameter of d 4.15 mm?

Uranium has two naturally occurring isotopes. 238u has a natural abundance of 99.3% and 235u has an abundance of 0.7%. it is the rarer 235u that is needed for nuclear reactors. the isotopes are separated by forming uranium hexafluoride uf6, which is a gas, then allowing it to diffuse through a series of porous membranes. 235uf6 has a slightly larger rms speed than 238uf6 and diffuses slightly faster. many repetitions of this procedure gradually separate the two isotopes. what is the ratio of the rms speed of 235uf6 to that of 238uf6? express your answer to five significant figures.
