Problem 59P

Lasers for Fusion Two of the most powerful lasers in the world are used in nuclear fusion experiments. The NOVA laser produces 40.0 kJ of energy in a pulse that lasts 2.50 ns, and the N1F laser (under construction) will produce a 10.0-ns pulse with 3.00 MJ of energy. (a) Which laser produces more energy in each pulse? (b) Which laser produces the greater average power during each pulse? (c) If the beam diameters are the same, which laser produces the greater average intensity?
