What’s a star? In complete sentences.

Alexxx [7]2 years ago

Hello!

A star is a large, spherical burning ball of gas located in outer space. They are made of hot gasses and plasma.

They are born in a nebula which is a large cluster of stardust. Many stars perform nuclear fusion, where hydrogen nuclei combine to create helium. This provides stars energy to burn and prosper for billions of years.

When a star is dying it will begin to lose its power. It will eventually explode in an enormous supernova. This has a chance of creating a black hole. Usually the remnants of the supernova will form another nebula, therefore continuing the cycle of a star.

I hope this helps!

Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:

Total 3 holes are available for conduction of current at 300K.

Explanation:

In order to develop a semiconductor, two type of impurities can be added as given below:

  1. N-type Impurities: Pentavalent impurities e.g. Phosphorous, Arsenic are added to have an additional electron in the structure. Thus a pentavalent impurity creates 1 additional electron.
  2. P-type Impurities: Trivalent impurities e.g. Boron, Aluminium are added to have a positive "hole" in the structure. Thus a trivalent impurity creates 1 hole.

Now for estimation of extra electrons in the impured structure is as

N_{electrons-free}=n_{pentavalent \, atoms}\\N_{electrons-free}=4\\

Now for estimation of "holes"  in the impured structure is as

N_{holes}=n_{trivalent \, atoms}\\N_{holes}=7\\

Now when the free electrons and "holes" are available in the structure ,the "holes" will be filled by the free electrons therefore

N_{holes-net}=N_{holes}-N_{electrons-free}\\N_{holes-net}=7-4\\N_{holes-net}=3

So total 3 "holes" are available for conduction of current at 300K.

The velocity of the wave involved in the Doppler effect:
Margarita [4]

The Doppler Effect provides the equation for the calculation of apparent frequency:

f=fo[vo/(vo-vr)] 

where:<span>
vo=source wave velocity 
vr=relative speed between source and observer 
f=apparent frequency 
fo=source frequency </span>

<span>
The velocity of the doppler wave is 
v=λf</span>

where λ is light wavelength. Hence,

v=λfo[vo/(vo-vr)] 

Based on the equation, we can say that wave velocity will always be defined by one and only one wavelength.

Therefore the answer is letter C.

Cesium-137 undergoes beta decay and has a half-life of 30.0 years. How many beta particles are emitted by a 14.0-g sample of ces
Mandarinka [93]

Answer: 0.81\times 10^{16} beta particles

Explanation:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}

Given mass = 14.0 g

Molar mass = 137 g/mol

\text{Number of moles of cesium}=\frac{14.0g}{137g/mol}=0.102moles

According to avogadro's law, 1 mole of every substance weighs equal to its molecular mass and contains avogadro's number 6.023\times 10^{23} of particles.

1 mole of cesium contains atoms =  6.023\times 10^{23}

0.102 moles of cesium contains atoms =  \frac{6.023\times 10^{23}}{1}\times 0.102=0.614\times 10^{23}

The relation of atoms with time for radioactivbe decay is:

N_t=N_0\times \frac{1}{2}^{\frac{t}{t_{\frac{1}{2}}}}

Where N_t =atoms left undecayed

N_0 = initial atoms

t = time taken for decay = 3 minutes

{t_{\frac{1}{2}}} = half life = 30.0 years = 1.577\times 10^7 minutes

The fraction that decays  :  1-(\frac{1}{2})^{\frac{3}{1.577\times 10^7}}=1.32\times 10^{-7}

Amount of particles that decay is  = 0.614\times 10^{23}\times 1.32\times 10^{-7}=0.81\times 10^{16}

Thus 0.81\times 10^{16} beta particles are emitted by a 14.0-g sample of cesium-137 in three minutes.
