reate semiconductors to repair computer components in their radio.
Which problem is likely to be the most difficult for Roland’s characters to overcome?

A) There are no semiconductor elements on the island.
B) Any substances they find are too impure.
C) They lack materials to make a p-type semiconductor.
D) No conductors are available to connect the components.

A Carnot air conditioner operates between an indoor temperature of 20°C and an outdoor temperature of 39°C. How much energy does
Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

D. 130 J

Explanation:

The coefficient of performance for a machine that is being used to cool, is given by:

COP=\frac{Q_C}{W}=\frac{T_C}{T_H-T_C}

Here Q_C  is the heat removed from the cold reservoir, W is the work required, that is, the energy required to remove the heat from the interior of the house, T_C is the cold temperature and T_H is the hot temperature. Recall use absolutes temperatures(273.15+^\circ C). Replacing and solving for W:

W=Q_c\frac{T_H-T_C}{T_C}\\W=2000J\frac{312.15K-293.15K}{293.15K}\\W=129.63J

The atomic number of a nucleus decreases during which nuclear reactions?
Goryan [66]
A related type of beta decay actually decreases the atomic number of the nucleus when a proton becomes a neutron. Due to charge conservation, this type of beta decay involves the release of a charged particle called a “positron” that looks and acts like an electron but has a positive charge.

Determine the change in electric potential energy of a system of two charged objects when a -2.1-C charged object and a -5.0-C c
elena55 [62]

Answer:

Change in electric potential energy ∆E = 365.72 kJ

Explanation:

Electric potential energy can be defined mathematically as:

E = kq1q2/r ....1

k = coulomb's constant = 9.0×10^9 N m^2/C^2

q1 = charge 1 = -2.1C

q2 = charge 2 = -5.0C

∆r = change in distance between the charges

r1 = 420km = 420000m

r2 = 160km = 160000m

From equation 1

∆E = kq1q2 (1/r2 -1/r1) ......2

Substituting the given values

∆E = 9.0×10^9 × -2.1 ×-5.0(1/160000 - 1/420000)

∆E = 94.5 × 10^9 (3.87 × 10^-6) J

∆E = 365.72 × 10^3 J

∆E = 365.72 kJ

Sound travels at a rate of 340 m/s in all directs through the air. Matt rings a very loud bell at one location, and Steve hears
DENIUS [597]

Answer:

It will take about 1.32 seconds to travel to his location.

Explanation:

Considering the sound travels at 340 m/s, then if a person is at a distance of 450 m m from the bell, we can use the velocity formula to find the answer;

velocity=\frac{distance}{time} \\340\,\frac{m}{s} =\frac{450\,\,m}{t} \\t=\frac{450}{340} \,s\\t\approx 1.32\,\,s
