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

Physics

Iteru [2.4K]3 years ago

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.

image distance,di=10 cm

object distance,do=20cm

magnification, m=di/do

=10/20

=0.5

since the image is virtual, magnification is negative.

therefore m=-0.5

A boy on the beach holds a spherical balloon filled with air. at 10:00am, the temperature on the beach is 20°c and the balloon h
Anon25 [30]
For idea gases, volume is directly proportional to temperature. That is, an increase in temperature leads to increase in volume and vice versa.

Therefore,
V1/T1 = V2/T2 => T2 = (V2*T1)/V1

Assuming that the balloon is spherical in shape,

V= 4/3*pi*R^3.... In the formula for calculating T2, 4/3*pi cancels out.

R1 = 30/2 15 cm; R2 = 30.5/2 = 15.25 cm; T1 = 20+273.15 =293.15 K

Therefore,

T2 = (R2^3*T1)/R1^3 = (15.25^3*293.15)/15^3 = 308.05 K = 34.9 °C
