Best Answer

A laser is capable of burning things because of the way they work. A laser by definition generates an intense beam of monochromatic light. This monochromatic light is actually electromagnetic radiation which because of its intensity causes things to burn.

Which has a better chance of popping a balloon a robot with a pin or a robot with a burning laser?

Since the pin has to be a certain sharpness and the balloon has to be a certain fullness, the BURNING laser will pop a balloon a lot easier since it is a burning laser, not just an ordinary laser light. The definition of the burning laser already answers the question of how much power it has - enough to burn. Modern balloons can be made from materials such as rubber, latex, polychloroprene or a nylon fabric, all of which burn very easily. edit: AWWWWW, i didnt know we could make funny answers!
