Answer:

a) Number of atoms per unit cell for Ga = 4 atoms per unit cell

Number of atoms per unit cell for As = 4 atoms per unit cell

b) Volume density of Germanium in its unit cell = 4.35 × 10²² /cm³

Explanation:

GaAs has a number density of 4.42 x 10²² atoms/cm³ from literature.

Since GaAs is known to contain almost equal amounts of Ga and As.

Number density of Ga = Number density of As = 2.21 × 10²² atoms/cm³

Number density = Number of atoms in a unit cell/volume of the unit cell

Number of atoms in the unit cell = ?

Volume of the unit cell = (lattice parameter)³ = (5.65 × 10⁻⁸)³ = 1.804 × 10⁻²² cm³

Number of atoms per unit cell for Ga and As = number density × volume of unit cell = 2.21 × 10²² × 1.804 × 10⁻²² = 4 atoms/unit cell

b) Volume density = Number of atoms per unit cell/volume of unit cell

Germanium has 8 atoms per unit cell (from literature),

Volume of unit cell = (lattice parameter)³ = (5.65 × 10⁻⁸)³ = 1.804 × 10⁻²² cm³

Volume density = 8/(1.804 × 10⁻²²) = 4.35 × 10²² /cm³

Hope this helps!

Water flows through a horizontal plastic pipe with a diameter of 0.15 m at a velocity of 15 cm/s. Determine the pressure drop pe
Sonja [21]

Answer:0.1898 Pa/m

Explanation:

Given data

Diameter of Pipe\left ( D\right )=0.15m

Velocity of water in pipe\left ( V\right )=15cm/s

We know viscosity of water is\left (\mu\right )=8.90\times10^{-4}pa-s

Pressure drop is given by hagen poiseuille equation

\Delta P=\frac{128\mu \L Q}{\pi D^4}

We have asked pressure Drop per unit length i.e.

\frac{\Delta P}{L} =\frac{128\mu \ Q}{\pi D^4}

Substituting Values

\frac{\Delta P}{L}=\frac{128\times8.90\times10^{-4}\times\pi \times\left ( 0.15^{3}\right )}{\pi\times 4 \times\left ( 0.15^{2}\right )}

\frac{\Delta P}{L}=0.1898 Pa/m

What is the maximal coefficient of performance of a refrigerator which cools down 10 kg of water (and then ice) to -6C. Upper he
inysia [295]

Given:

Temperature of water, T_{1} = -6^{\circ}C =273 +(-6) =267 K

Temperature surrounding refrigerator, T_{2} = 21^{\circ}C =273 + 21 =294 K

Specific heat given for water, C_{w} = 4.19 KJ/kg/K

Specific heat given for ice, C_{ice} = 2.1 KJ/kg/K

Latent heat of fusion,  L_{fusion} = 335KJ/kg

Solution:

Coefficient of Performance (COP) for refrigerator is given by:

Max COP_{refrigerator} = \frac{T_{2}}{T_{2} - T_{1}}

= \frac{267}{294 - 267} = 9.89

Coefficient of Performance (COP) for heat pump is given by:

Max COP_{heat pump} = \frac{T_{1}}{T_{2} - T_{1}}\frac{294}{294 - 267} = 10.89

Do the coil resistances have any effect on the plots?
PolarNik [594]
Because of the skin depth effect, the current at high frequency tends to flow at very low depth from radius. Then at high frequency the effective cross section of the wire is narrower than at DC.

Fro example skin depth at 100 kHz is 0.206 mm (0.008”), a wire more thicker than AWG26 could be a waste of copper, better use a bunch of thin wire (Litz wire) to rise the Q factor.

Answer: a. 0.4667

b. 0.4667 and C 0.0667

Explanation:

Given Data:

N = population size (10)

n = random selection (2)

r = number of observations = 7

Therefore

f(y) = ( r/y ) ( N - r / n - y ) / ( N /n )

When y = 1

f(1) = ( 7/1 ) ( 10 - 7 / 2 -1 ) / ( 10/2 )

= 7 / 15

= 0.4667

When y = 2

f(2) = ( 7/2 ) ( 10 - 7 / 2 -2 ) / ( 10/2 )

= 7 / 15

= 0.4667

When y = 0

f(0) = ( 7/0 ) ( 10 - 7 / 2 -0) / ( 10/2 )

= 1 / 15

= 0.0667

What's the monomer? Show the structure.
ivolga24 [154]

In order to understand a monomer let´s first see the structure of a polymer. As an example, in the first figure polyethylene (or polyethene) is shown. This polymer, like every other one, is composed of many repeated subunits, these subunits are called monomer. In the second figure, polyethylene's monomer is shown.
