Which outcome arises when a high-power laser rapidly heats a metal?

💡 Explanation

Ablation results since rapid heating causes a phase transition from solid to plasma. The metal is vaporized at the surface because the laser's energy overwhelms conductive heat transfer, therefore ablation occurs rather than slower thermal processes.
