Rank the band gap energies of the following solids. Metal insulator semiconductor superconductor I. large band gap energy II. sm

allest band gap (or zero gap) energy III. band gap energy of intermediate value
Physics
1 answer:
Anon25 [30]4 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Metal - smallest band gap energy

insulators -  large band gap energies

semiconductor -  Band gap of intermediate energies

superconductor cooper pair theory is applied for calculating gap energies.

Explanation:

Metal - smallest band gap energy

it is due to the fact that valence and conduction bond in metal are in overlapped conditioned. Therefore showing zero gap energies

insulators -  large band gap energies

insulator has high band gap

semiconductor -  Band gap of intermediate energies

semi conductor has gap of intermediate range

while for superconductor cooper pair theory is applied for calculating gap energies.

What is the best description of a mechanical wave?
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer:

A mechanical wave is a wave that is an oscillation of matter, and therefore transfers energy through a medium. While waves can move over long distances, the movement of the medium of transmission—the material—is limited. Therefore, the oscillating material does not move far from its initial equilibrium position.

julsineya [31]

Answer:

The Milky Way is about 1,000,000,000,000,000,000 km (about 100,000 light years or about 30 kpc) across. The Sun does not lie near the center of our Galaxy. It lies about 8 kpc from the center on what is known as the Orion Arm of the Milky Way

Define habitat preservation and give at least two examples.
lisov135 [29]
Habitat preservation is when people get together or just one person helps to stop the end of a living space for animals such as the monterey aquarium the help sea life by doing research to see why animals are dying and do what they can to stop it. another one if nation parks or forests you are not allowed to harm them in any way they are protected by laws(the government)

Answer:

Gravitational pull

Explanation:

There are four fundamental forces in nature:

- Gravitational force: it is an attractive force exerted between all objects having mass. Its magnitude is proportional to the product of the masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the objects.

- Electromagnetic force: it is the force exerted between electrically charged object. It can be either attractive ore repulsive.  Its magnitude is proportional to the product of the charges and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the objects.

- Strong nuclear force: it is the force responsible for holding protons and neutrons together in the nuclei of the atoms. It is attractive and acts only on a very short scale.

- Weak nuclear force: it is the force responsible for certain nuclear decay processes (radioactivity).

In this problem, landslides occur when certain masses of terrain are attracted towards the ground - they are attracted because of the gravitational force.

So, the correct answer is

gravitational pull
