A certain computer chip that has dimensions of 3.67 cm and 2.93 cm contains 3.5 million transistors. If the transistors are squa

re, what must be their maximum dimensions (in terms of microns or µm)? (Note: Devices other than transistors are also on the chip, and there must be room for the interconnections among the circuit elements. Transistors smaller than 0.7 μm are now commonly and inexpensively fabricated.)

Answer:

1.56 × 10^-3 cm.

Explanation:

So, we are given the following parameters from the question above;

Length = 3.67 cm, breadth = 2.93 cm, and the number of embedded transistors = 3.5 million.

Step one: find the area of the computer chip.

Therefore, Area = Length × breadth.

Area = 3.67 cm × 2.93 cm.

Area of the computer chip = 10.7531 cm^2. = 10.75 cm^2.

Step two: find the area of one transistor

The area of one transistor is; (area of the computer chip) ÷ (number of embedded transistors).

Hence;

The area of one transistor= 10.7531/4.4 × 10^6.

The area of one transistor= 2.44 × 10^-6 cm^2.

=> Note that We have our transistors as square, therefore;

The maximum dimension = √ (2.44 × 10^-6) cm^2.

The maximum dimension= 1.56 × 10^-3 cm.

21. A 60 kg student on a scooter is pushed with a constant force of 40 N across a horizontal concrete driveway at a constant spe
DedPeter [7]

The magnitude of the force of friction is 40 N

Explanation:

To solve the problem, we just have to analyze the forces acting on the student and the scooter along the horizontal direction. We have:

- The constant pushing force forward, of magnitude F = 40 N

- The frictional force, acting backward, F_f

Since the two forces are in opposite direction, the equation of motion is

F-F_f = ma

where

m is the mass of the student+scooter

a is the acceleration

However, here the scooter is moving at constant speed: this means that its acceleration is zero, so

a = 0

And therefore,

F - F_f = 0\\F_f = F

which means that the magnitude of the force of friction is also equal to 40 N.

If I turn on a light in a spaceship traveling 1C BACKWARDS, what happens to the photons? Speed -0-, or 1C in opposite direction?
Advocard [28]

If the spaceship's Physicist happens to be hanging out of one side
of the ship, and he measures the speed of the photons as they pass
him and leave the ship, he'll see them passing him at 'c' ... the speed
of light.

When those photons pass somebody who happens to be in their
path, and he decides to measure their speed, he'll see them move
past him at 'c' ... the speed of light.
 
It doesn't matter whether the observer who measures them is
moving, or at what speed.

And it doesn't matter what source the photons come from, or
whether the source is moving, or at what speed.

And it doesn't matter what the photons' wavelength/frequency is ...
anything from radio to gamma rays.

The photons pass everybody at 'c' ... the speed of light.

Yes, I hear you.  That can't be true. It's crazy.
Maybe it's crazy, but it's true.
