4. a laser beam travels along a straight path for a certain distance, and then bounces n
times off tilted mirrors before striking a target. the laser beam travels v2 additional
centimeters each time it bounces off a mirror. when there are 5 bounces, the laser
beam travels 132 cm.
a. let d (n) denote the distance the laser travels in cm as a function of the number
of bounces off a mirror, n. what does d(5) represent? what is the value of d(5)?

Scientists use laser range-finding to measure the distance to the moon with great accuracy. a brief laser pulse is fired at the moon, then the time interval is measured until the "echo" is seen by a telescope. a laser beam spreads out as it travels because it diffracts through a circular exit as it leaves the laser. in order for the reflected light to be bright enough to detect, the laser spot on the moon must be no more than 1.0 km in diameter. staying within this diameter is accomplished by using a special large-diameter laser. part a if λ = 540nm , what is the minimum diameter of the circular opening from which the laser beam emerges? the earth-moon distance is 384,000 km. express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units.
