Answer:
The Bailey family has flourished during its business’ 110-year history. But Bailey Nurseries’ leaders still operate with the belief that the family doesn’t always know best. The company has grown from a one-man operation selling fruit trees and ornamental shrubs to one of the largest wholesale nurseries in the United States, thanks to insights from those who are family and those who aren’t.
“For a business to thrive, you have to ask for outside help,” says Terri McEnaney, president of the Newport-based company and a fourth-generation family member. “We get an outside perspective through family business programs, advisors and our board, because you can get a bit ingrained in your own way of thinking.”
When Bailey Nurseries chose its current leader in 2000, it brought in a facilitator who gathered insights from key employees, board members and owners. Third-generation leaders (and brothers) Gordie and Rod Bailey picked Rod’s daughter McEnaney, who had experience both inside and outside the company.

Answer: 24 pA
Explanation:
As pure silicon is a semiconductor, the resistivity value is strongly dependent of temperature, as the main responsible for conductivity, the number of charge carriers (both electrons and holes) does.
Based on these considerations, we found that at room temperature, pure silicon resistivity can be approximated as 2.1. 10⁵ Ω cm.
The resistance R of a given resistor, is expressed by the following formula:
R = ρ L / A
Replacing by the values for resistivity, L and A, we have
R = 2.1. 10⁵ Ω cm. (10⁴ μm/cm). 50 μm/ 0.5 μm2
R = 2.1. 10¹¹ Ω
Assuming that we can apply Ohm´s Law, the current that would pass through this resistor for an applied voltage of 5 V, is as follows:
I = V/R = 5 V / 2.1.10¹¹ Ω = 2.38. 10⁻¹¹ A= 24 pA
