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.

Cork has a density of about 0.60 g/cm3 . Cork will partially float in water which has a density of 1.0 g/cm3 . If the piece of c
Fantom [35]

Answer:

3 cm³

Explanation:

Density of the cork = 0.6 g/cm³

Density of water = 1 g/cm³

Volume of cork = 5 cm³

We all know that the formula for density is given as

Density = mass/volume,

The mass of the cork is

Mass = density * volume

Mass = 0.6 * 5

Mass = 3 gram

Given that the density is 0.6, and it is partially floating, then we can say that the volume of the cork below the water is

5 * 0.6 = 3 cm³

There are two objects with initial charge. Object A has 3 positive and 3 negative charges. Object B has 5 positive and 3 negativ
diamong [38]

Answer:

first option

Explanation:

we know the total amount of charges should be constant so

3 + (-3) + 5 + (-3) = 2

1 + 1 = 2 true

6 + 8 = 14 false

2 + (-2) = 0 false

5 + 3 = 8 false

If the total charge on a rod of length 0.4 m is 2.6 nc, what is the magnitude of the electric field at a location 3 cm from the
Nana76 [90]
Let the rod be on the x-axes with endpoints -L/2 and L/2 and uniform charge density lambda (2.6nC/0.4m = 7.25 nC/m). 

The point then lies on the y-axes at d = 0.03 m. 

from symmetry, the field at that point will be ascending along the y-axes. 


A charge element at position x on the rod has distance sqrt(x^2 + d^2) to the point. 

Also, from the geometry, the component in the y-direction is d/sqrt(x^2+d^2) times the field strength. 


All in all, the infinitesimal field strength from the charge between x and x+dx is: 


dE = k lambda dx * 1/(x^2+d^2) * d/sqrt(x^2+d^2) 


Therefore, upon integration, 


E = k lambda d INTEGRAL{dx / (x^2 + d^2)^(3/2) } where x goes from -L/2 to L/2. 


This gives:


E = k lambda L / (d sqrt((L/2)^2 + d^2) ) 


But lambda L = Q, the total charge on the rod, so 


E = k Q / ( d * sqrt((L/2)^2 + d^2) )
