What is a p-n junction? Show by the diagram.
1 answer:
Answer:
The p-n junction is a region formed when a p -type semiconductor material is joined to an n-type semiconductor material
Explanation:
The p type semiconductor has holes as its majority charge carriers making it positively charged while the n –types has an overall negative charge. At the junction the holes move towards the electron until such a time when there is a balance in charges from both materials, which leads to the formation of the depletion zone as shown in the attachment below

Answer:
a) P ≥ 22.164 Kips
b) Q = 5.4 Kips
Explanation:
GIven
W = 18 Kips
μ₁ = 0.30
μ₂ = 0.60
a) P = ?
We get F₁ and F₂ as follows:
F₁ = μ₁*W = 0.30*18 Kips = 5.4 Kips
F₂ = μ₂*Nef = 0.6*Nef
Then, we apply
∑Fy = 0 (+↑)
Nef*Cos 12º - F₂*Sin 12º = W
⇒ Nef*Cos 12º - (0.6*Nef)*Sin 12º = 18
⇒ Nef = 21.09 Kips
Wedge moves if
P ≥ F₁ + F₂*Cos 12º + Nef*Sin 12º
⇒ P ≥ 5.4 Kips + 0.6*21.09 Kips*Cos 12º + 21.09 Kips*Sin 12º
⇒ P ≥ 22.164 Kips
b) For the static equilibrium of base plate
Q = F₁ = 5.4 Kips
We can see the pic shown in order to understand the question.
