Answer:

Coordination number:

Coordination number can be defined as the number of nearest atoms which touch the central atom.In simple word the number of neighbours atoms which touches a an atoms.

Atomic packing factor :

It is also known as packing efficiency.It is the fraction of volume in a Crystal which is filled by constituent particles.It is always less than 1.Generally it is represented in the fraction.

Ex:

Lets take FCC cubic cell

Coordination number = 12 .

Atomic packing factor = 74%

A particular NMOS device has parameters VT N = 0.6 V, L = 0.8µm, tox = 200 Å, and µn = 600 cm2 /V–s. A drain current of ID = 1.2

NeTakaya

Answer:

$W= 3.22 \mu m$

Explanation:

the transistor In saturation drain current region is given by:

$i_D}=K_a(V_{GS}-V_{IN})^2$

Making $K_a$ the subject of the formula; we have:

$K_a=\frac {i_D} {(V_{GS} - V_{IN})^2}$

where;

$i_D = 1.2m$

$V_{GS}= 3.0V$

$V_{TN} = 0.6 V$

$K_a=\frac {1.2m} {(3.0 - 0.6)^2}$

$K_a = 208.3 \mu A/V^2$

Also;

$k'_n}=\frac{\mu n (\frac{cm^2}{V-s} ) \epsilon _{ox}(\frac{F}{cm} ) }{t_{ox}(cm)}$

where:

$\mu n (\frac{cm^2}{V-s} ) = 600$

$\epsilon _{ox}=3.9*8.85*10^{-14}$

${t_{ox}(cm)=200*10^{-8}$

substituting our values; we have:

$k'_n}=\frac{(600)(3.988.85*10^{-14})}{(200*10^{-8})}$

$k'_n}=103.545 \mu A/V^2$

Finally, the width can be calculated by using the formula:

$W= \frac{2LK_n}{k'n}$

where;

L = $0.8 \mu m$

$W= \frac{2*0.8 \mu m *208.3 \mu}{103.545 \mu}$

$W= 3.22 \mu m$

Which of the following impulse responses correspond(s) to stable LTI systems? (a) h1(t) = e-(1-2j)ru(t) (b) h2(t) = e-r cos(2t)u

Illusion [34]

Answer:

LTI system is stable if Impulse response is finite.

so the correct answer is "b"

(b) h2(t) = e-r cos(2t)u(t)

a cubical box 20-cm on a side is contructed from 1.2 cm thick concrete panels. A 100-W light bulb is sealed inside the box. What

Flura [38]

Answer:

Temperature on the inside ofthe box

Explanation:

The power of the light bulb is the rate of heat conduction of the bulb, $dq/dt = 100 W$

The thickness of the wall, L = 1.2 cm = 0.012m

Length of the cube's side, x = 20cm = 0.2 m

The area of the cubical box, A = 6x²

A = 6 * 0.2² = 6 * 0.04

A = 0.24 m²

Temperature of the surrounding, $T_0 = 20^0 C = 273 + 20 = 293 K$

Temperature of the inside of the box, $T_{in} = ?$

Coefficient of thermal conductivity, k = 0.8 W/m-K

The formula for the rate of heat conduction is given by:

$dq/dt = \frac{kA(T_{in} - T_0)}{L} \\\\100 = \frac{0.8*0.24(T_{in} - 293)}{0.012}\\\\T_{in} - 293 = \frac{100 * 0.012}{0.8*0.24} \\\\T_{in} - 293 = 6.25\\\\T_{in} = 293 + 6.25\\\\T_{in} = 299.25 K\\\\T_{in} = 299.25 - 273\\\\T_{in} = 26.25^0 C$

In modern construction, studs are usually cut to exact length at the mill. They are designated by the letters

ehidna [41]

Answer:

P.E.T

Explanation:

Stud is a short form of stud wall which are typically vertical framing members in a wall of a building. Wall studs are available in standard lengths but since the height of ceiling vary, sometimes one has to cut the stud walls on site to fit. Therefore, there are pre-cut studs which are more efficient in implementation. These are usually referred as Precision-End Trimmed studs, (P.E.T). Therefore, stud walls which are cut to exact length at the mill for modern construction are designated by letters P.E.T
