Explanation:

The two types of furnaces used in steel production are:

Basic oxygen furnace

In basic oxygen furnace, iron is combined with the varying amounts of the steel scrap and also small amounts of the flux in the Blast Furnace. Lance is introduced in vessel and blows about 99% of the pure oxygen causing rise in temperature to about 1700°C. This temperature melts scrap and the impurities are oxidized and results in the liquid steel.

Electric arc furnace

Electric arc furnace reuses existing steel. Furnace is charged with the steel scrap. It operates on basis of electrical charge between the two electrodes providing heat for process. Power is supplied through electrodes placed in furnace, which produce arc of the electricity through scrap steel which raises temperature to about 1600˚C. This temperature melts scrap and the impurities can be removed through use of the fluxes and results in the liquid steel.

If a generator has 120 volts and 22 amps, how many ohms are needed so the generator will not explode.

daser333 [38]

120 volt divided by 22 ampere
= 5.4545454545455 ohm (Ω)
P = V × I
= 120 volt × 22 ampere
= 2640 watt (W)

How will the delay and active power per device change as you increase the doping density of both the N- and the P-MOSFET?

Murljashka [212]

Answer:

hello your question is incomplete attached below is the missing part of the question

Consider an inverter operating a power supply voltage VDD. Assume that matched condition for this inverter. Make the necessary assumptions to get to an answer for the following questions.

answer : Nd ∝ rt

Explanation:

Determine how the delay and active power per device will change as the doping density of N- and P-MOSFET increases

Pactive ( active power ) = Efs * F

Pactive = $\frac{q^2Nd^2*Xn^2}{6Eo} * f$

also note that ; Pactive ∝ Nd2 (

tD = K . $\frac{Vdd}{(Vdd - Vt )^2}$ since K = constant

Hence : Nd ∝ rt
