Are there practical limits to how physically large the width of a laser can be? For example, a beam width of tens of meters. Are there challenges creating a coherent beam as one scales up in size?

Let's say you covered the roof, trunk lid, etc of an electric or hybrid car with solar panels. How much of a benefit would this be in terms of energy savings?

If the Earth stopped rotating relative to the Sun, causing one side of the planet to be facing the Sun at all times and the other side in eternal darkness (except for moonlight), what would be the effects? How would life on Earth cope?

In Jurassic Park, Grant tricks the T-Rex by using a flare to distract it, explaining the T-Rex's vision prioritizes movement. Are there any actual animals this trick would work with in real life, or is this fictional or exaggerated?

Gravity travels at the speed of light. Are gravitational interactions halved because both masses are 'sending out' gravity and they meet in the middle? Or does gravitational interaction still only happen at C?
