A 1.00 m diameter mirror focuses the sun's rays onto an absorbing plate 2.00 cm in radius, which holds a can containing 1.00 L of water of 20 degree. a) if the solar intensity is 1.00 kW/m^2, what is the intensity on the absorbing plate? b) what are the maximum magnitudes of the field E and B? c) If 40.0% of the energy is absorbed what time interval is required to bring water to its boiling point?
The maximum electric field strength in air is 3.0 MV/m. Stronger electric fields ionize the air and create a spark.

Biologists often study the patterns of migratory birds by using radar (1–10 GHz electromagnetic waves) to track their flight. To check whether radar waves influence the birds’ flight, researchers tracked the birds visually, both with the radar on and with it off. The 9 GHz radar waves had an intensity of 400 W/m2 at 250 m. What was the amplitude of the electric field at this distance? (The experiments showed that the radar did not affect the birds.)
