Define a diode in semiconductor​

Physics
1 answer:
kolbaska11 [484]3 years ago
3 0

Explanation:

A diodes are semiconductors offering a low resistance in one direction which allows current to flow through and opposes the movement of current in the other direction.

Diodes allow for only a unidirectional flow and conduction of electric current.

Unlike insulators, they can conduct electric current but in one direction.

Unlike conductors, they cannot conduct in both directions.

  • Most diodes are usually made of silicon and they find a wide range of application in modern electronics.

Concept map for kinetic energy, work and power
Helen [10]

Kinetic energy: the energy of motion

Work: the change in kinetic energy

Power: the rate of work done

Explanation:

The kinetic energy of an object is the energy possessed by the object due to its motion. Mathematically, it is given by:

K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

where

m is the mass of the object

v is its speed

The work done an object is the amount of energy transferred; according to the energy-work theorem, it is equal to the change in kinetic energy of an object:

W=K_f - K_i

where

K_f is the  final kinetic energy

K_i is the initial kinetic energy

Finally, the power is the rate of work done per unit time. Mathematically, ti can be expressed as

P=\frac{W}{t}

where

W is the work done

t is the time elapsed

The spherical annulus of cometary nuclei surrounding the solar system is called the ___.
Bingel [31]

Answer:

Oort Cloud

Explanation:

  • Hundreds of millions of comet nuclei forming a spherical region that surrounds the solar system is called Oort cloud.
  • The Oort cloud revolves at tens of thousands of the distance of the earth from the sun.
  • Comets are the condensed water and dust particles that orbit around the sun with inward helix leaving behind a tail of vapours and vaporize completely as they get closer to the sun during their revolution around it.
  • They have a nebulous appearance and extremely elongated orbits.

PLZ EXPLAIN IM SO CONFUSED AND THIS IS DUE TONIGHT. I WILL GIVE 50 POINTS!
bezimeni [28]

When you first pull back on the pendulum, and when you pull it back really high the Potential Energy is high and the Kinetic Energy is low, But when up let go, and it gets right around the middle, that's when the Potential energy transfers to Kinetic, at that point the kinetic Energy is high and the potential Energy is low. But when it comes back up at the end. The same thing will happen, the Potential Energy is high, and the Kinetic Energy is low. Through all of that the Mechanical Energy stays the same. 

I hope this helps. :)
