Answer:

Semiconductors

Explanation:

The resistivity of conductors is low and the resistivity of insulators is high. The materials having resistivity between conductors and insulators are called semiconductors.

For example, silicon, gemanium, etc.

The elements having valency +4 are the semiconductors.

By increasing the temperature os a semiconductor, the conductivity increases or by the process of dopping the conductivity of semiconductor also increases.

Answer:

d₂ = 1.466 m

Explanation:

In this case we must use the rotational equilibrium equations

Στ = 0

τ = F r

we must set a reference system, we use with origin at the easel B and an axis parallel to the plank , we will use that the counterclockwise ratio is positive

+ W d₁ - w_cat d₂ = 0

d₂ = W / w d₁

d₂ = M /m d₁

d₂ = 5.00 /2.9 0.850

d₂ = 1.466 m
