The electric-power industry is interested in finding a way to store electric energy during times of low demand for use during pe

ak-demand times. One way of achieving this goal is to use large inductors. true or false

Answer: True

Explanation: Inductors are similar to resistors, due to the fact that they offer resistance to current flow, but Inductors are different from resistors in that, while resistors loss electric energy in a circuit in the form of heat, an inductor stores that energy in the form of a magnetic field.

As current passes through an inductor overtime it tends to store current in the form of magnetic field. Therefore the electric-power industry can store energy in large Inductors.

Match these items. 1. Ca 6 proton 2. H 2O 3 fission 3. nuclear decay 7 element 4. nuclear synthesis 8 electron 5. η atomic numbe
Gnesinka [82]

1. Ca → Element

2. Proton → positive

3. H2O → compound

4. Fission → nuclear decay

5. Fusion → Nuclear synthesis

6. η → Neutron

7. e → electron

8. Atomic number → no of protons in nucleus.

Explanation

1. Ca (Calcium):

Calcium is an element with the atomic number of 20. It is an alkaline earth metal. The 99% of calcium is found in our bodies, in bones, teeth.

2. Proton:

Proton is a subatomic particle and it holds the positive charge. Proton is present in the nucleus of the atom.

3. H2O (water):

Water is a chemical compound and it's chemical formula is H2O. It's called compound as it contains 2 hydrogen and 1 oxygen atoms bonded together through the covalent bond.

4. Fission:

Fission is a process in which large massive unstable nucleus splits into the smaller, less heavier and stable nuclei. The energy is re;eased in the form of radiations during this process. It's called as the radioactive decay.

5. Fusion:

Fusion is opposite of the fission reaction. As in this case the two nuclei combines to form a single large nucleus. That's why it is a nuclear synthesis process.

6. η neutron:

Neutron is a subatomic particle and it is a neutral particle which is located inside the nucleus. n is a symbol used for the neutron.

7. e Electron:

The symbol for electron is e. It's a subatomic particle with negative charge. It is found in the orbits around the nucleus.

8.  Atomic Number:

Atomic number is defined as the number of protons in the nucleus of an atom. IT is represented by Z.

Find the electron and hole mobilities, and the resistivity of intrinsic silicon at 300K. Is intrinsic silicon a semiconductor
tino4ka555 [31]

Answer:

Resistivity = 231.481 K Ohm

Yes, Intrinsic Silicon is the semiconductor.

Explanation:

Solution:

At 300K:

Let suppose mobility of electron in intrinsic semiconductor = M_{e}

Mobility of electron in intrinsic semiconductor is:

M_{e}  = 1300 cm^{2}/volt.sec

Let suppose mobility of hole in intrinsic semiconductor = M_{h}

M_{h} = 500 cm^{2}/volt.sec

We know that, intrinsic silicon semiconductor has equal number of holes and electrons. So,

At 300 K

Intrinsic Carrier Concentration = 1.5 x 10^{10}/cm^{3} = C

And,

Conductivity of intrinsic Silicon is:

σ = C x (M_{h} + M_{e}) e

e = 1.6 x 10^{-19} C

So, plugging in the values, we get:

σ = C x (M_{h} + M_{e}) e

σ = 1.5 x 10^{10} x (500 + 1300) x 1.6 x 10^{-19}

σ = 4.32 x 10^{-6}

So, now we can find the resistivity.

Resistivity = 1/σ

Resistivity = 1/ 4.32 x 10^{-6}

Resistivity = 231.481 K Ohm

Yes, Intrinsic Silicon is the semiconductor.

Compare and contrast the energy transfer of a roller coaster to that of a pendulum
Softa [21]

When the pendulum and roller coaster move to the top, its has more potential energy whereas when comes to the bottom has more kinetic energy.

<h3>Compare and contrast the energy transfer of a roller coaster to that of a pendulum:</h3><h3>What is the transfer of energy in a roller coaster?</h3>

The transfer of potential energy to kinetic energy occur when the roller coaster move along the track. As the motor pulls the cars to the top, the body has more potential energy whereas when the body comes to the bottom , it has kinetic energy in the object.

<h3>What is the energy transfer in a pendulum?</h3>

As a pendulum swings, its potential energy changes to kinetic energy and kinetic energy changes into potential energy. At the top more potential energy is present.

So we can conclude that When the pendulum and roller coaster move to the top, its has more potential energy whereas when comes to the bottom has more kinetic energy.
