The first transistor made of gold, plastic and germanium was about the size of adult's fingernail.

Option C

Explanation:

The first transistor made of gold, plastic and germanium was invented in Bell laboratories. It is termed as point contact transistor. As it is made like a pointed arrow with both the sides covered with layer of gold foil. The germanium is used at the tip, just like the base and the gold foil ends as collector and emitter.

The size of this transistor is about the size of adult's fingernail. It is very small in size and it was one of its kind. Due to this small size and the working capacity by the point contact, it is termed as point contact transistor.

1. In a(n) ______________________ circuit, all parts are connected one after another along one path.

poizon [28]

Answer:

1. A series circuit is a closed circuit which has all loads connected in a row and there is only one path for the current to flow.

2. The Ohm's Law state that a current flow through a resistor is directly proportional to the voltage across it $R = \frac{V}{I}$

3. A parallel circuit is a closed circuit divided into branches that it has two o more paths for the current to flow and the loads are parallel to each other which mean the voltage across them is the same for all loads.

Answer:

The velocity is 60 km/hr.

Explanation:

<h3>Given:</h3>

Displacement (d) = 480 km = 48000 m

Time (t) = 8 Hours = 480 minute

Velocity (v) = ?

Now,

Velocity = Displacement ÷ Time

v = d/t

v = 480/8

v = 60 km/hr

Thus, The velocity is 60 km/hr.

The spectra of most stars are dark-line spectra because ________.

pav-90 [236]

Because dark line spectra result from passing white light through ionized gasses and plasmas, which is what the atmosphere of stars are made of. These frequencies are scattered by the star's atmosphere as it leaves the surface (photosphere) of the star, and don't make it to earth.
