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.

Without using a micrometer screw gauge, how do I find the average diameter of a long piece of thin wire using a metre rule and a
Mice21 [21]

Answer:

Wind the long piece of thin wire around the uniform glass rod multiple times, find the length of the total diameters using the metre ruler, and divide by the number of times you wound it around the rod.

Explanation:

Since the diameter of one long piece of thin wire is too thin to be measured by a metre ruler, you can wind it multiple times and push it side by side to get a length you can measure.

For example, if you wound it around 20 times and the total length of 20 diameters of the wire side-by-side is 2.0 cm, one winding, which is the diameter would be 2.0cm ÷ 20 = 0.10cm or 1mm.

What is the momentum of a 950 kg car moving at 10.0 m/s?
pentagon [3]

Answer:

<h3>The answer is 9500 kgm/s</h3>

Explanation:

The momentum of an object can be found by using the formula

<h3>momentum = mass × velocity</h3>

From the question

mass = 950 kg

velocity = 10.0 m/s

We have

momentum = 950 × 10

We have the final answer as

<h3>9500 kgm/s</h3>

Hope this helps you

A nonzero net force acts on a particle and does work. Which one of the following statements is true?
arlik [135]

Answer:

option (D) is correct.

Explanation:

According to the work energy theorem, the work done by all forces is equal to the change in kinetic energy of the body.

the kinetic energy of a body is directly proportional to the square of the speed of the body.

As the kinetic energy change, the speed of the body also change.

Option (D) is correct.

An astronaut is moving in space when a big explosion occurs about 50 meters behind him. How will the astronaut come to know abou
LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Answer:

The correct answer is B.

The astronaut will know due to the light from the explosion.

Explanation:

Sound and vibrations require a medium such as air to travel through. Space, there is no air. Only a vacuum. So sound and vibrations are unable to travel. Light requires no medium to travel. It can go through a vacuum.  

Therefore the Astronaut will see a bright flash of light as it travels from the explosion to outer space. It is also important to note that light can travel very far because nothing else interacts with its wave particles and as such, it cannot be impeded.

Cheers!
