Answer:

~ is for negation

^ is for "and"

v is for "or"

=> for "if then"

<=> for "if and only if"

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) ~P (negation of P)

I didn't buy a lottery ticket this weekend.

(b) P v Q (P is in disjunction Q)

I have either bought a lottery ticket this weekend or won the million dollar jackpot.

(c) P => Q (Q is a consequence of P)

I won the million dollar jackpot because I bought a lottery ticket this weekend.

(d) P ^ Q (P is in conjunction with Q)

I bought a lottery ticket this weekend, and I won the million dollar jackpot.

(e) P <=> Q (P and Q are dependent on each other)

If only I had bought a lottery ticket this weekend, I would have won the million dollar jackpot.

(f) ~P => ~Q (negation of Q is a consequence of negation of P)

I didn't win the million dollar jackpot because I didn't buy a lottery ticket this weekend.

(g) ~P ^ ~Q (negation of P is in conjunction with negation of Q)

I neither bought a lottery ticket this weekend nor won the million dollar jackpot.

(h) ~P v (P ^ Q)

This is logically equivalent to (~P v P) ^ (~P v Q) (negation of P is in disjunction with P, and also with disjunction with Q), and can be best expressed as:

It didn't matter that I bought a jackpot ticket or not, I won the million dollar jackpot.

If there are 10 billion transistors (each of a square shape) uniformly (without space) distributed on a silicon chip with the sq
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer:

the transistors have L=1 mm of linear size

Step-by-step explanation:

For the silicon chip the area is A=1 cm² and for the transistors the area is At=L² (L=linear size) . Then since N= 10 billion transistors of area At should fit in the area A

A=N*At

A=N*L²

solving for L

L= √(A/N)

Assuming that 1 billion=10⁹ (short scale version of billion), then

L= √(A/N) = √(1 cm²/10⁹) = 1 cm / 10³ = 1 mm

then the transistors have L=1 mm of linear size
