Why silicon have large forward current as compared to germanium?​

Physics
1 answer:
Iteru [2.4K]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

The structure of Germanium crystals will be destroyed at higher temperature. However, Silicon crystals are not easily damaged by excess heat. Peak Inverse Voltage ratings of Silicon diodes are greater than Germanium diodes. Si is less expensive due to the greater abundance of element.

Be sure to answer all parts. Assume the diameter of a neutral helium atom is 1.40 × 102 pm. Suppose that we could line up helium
ss7ja [257]

Answer:

The number of atoms are 1.86\times10^{8}.

Explanation:

Given that,

Diameter D = 1.40\times10^{2}\ pm

D=1.40\times10^{2}\times10^{-12}\ m

Distance = 2.60 cm

We calculate the number of atoms

Using formula of numbers of atoms

Number\ of\ atoms =\dfrac{2.60\times10^{-2}}{1.40\times10^{2}\times10^{-12}}

Number\of\atoms =1.86\times10^{8}

Hence, The number of atoms are 1.86\times10^{8}.

A solid sphere of weight 42.0 N rolls up an incline at an angle of 36.0°. At the bottom of the incline the center of mass of the
Alecsey [184]

Answer:

Part a)

KE = 77.95 J

Part b)

L = 3.16 m

Part c)

distance L is independent of the mass of the sphere

Explanation:

Part a)

As we know that rotational kinetic energy of the sphere is given as

KE = \frac{1}{2}I\omega_2 + \frac{1}{2}mv^2

so we will have

KE = \frac{1}{2}(\frac{2}{5}mR^2)(\frac{v}{R})^2 + \frac{1}{2}mv^2

so we will have

KE = \frac{1}{5} mv^2 + \frac{1}{2}mv^2

KE = \frac{7}{10} mv^2

KE = \frac{7}{10}(\frac{42}{9.81})(5.10^2)

KE = 77.95 J

Part b)

By mechanical energy conservation law we know that

Work done against gravity = initial kinetic energy of the sphere

So we will have

mgLsin\theta = KE

\frac{42}{9.81}(9.81)L sin36 = 77.95

L = 3.16 m

Part c)

by equation of energy conservation we know that

\frac{7}{10}mv^2 = mgL sin\theta

so here we can see that distance L is independent of the mass of the sphere

The gold foil experiment led to the conclusion that each atom in the foil was composed mostly of empty space because most alpha
katovenus [111]

Answer:

(1) passed through the foil

Explanation:

Ernest Rutherford conducted an experiment using an alpha particle emitter projected towards a gold foil and the gold foil was surrounded by a fluorescent screen which glows upon being struck by an alpha particle.

  • When the experiment was conducted he found that most of the alpha particles went away without any deflection (due to the empty space) glowing the fluorescent screen right at the point of from where they were emitted.
  • While a few were deflected at reflex angle because they were directed towards the center of the nucleus having the net effective charge as positive.
  • And some were acutely deflected due to the field effect of the positive charge of the proton inside the nucleus. All these  conclusions were made based upon the spot of glow on the fluorescent screen.
