Why carbon is not used as a semiconductor material

1 answer:

8 0

Carbon is not used as semiconductor it has 4 valence electrons in it valence shell but the energy gap is very small it will conduct electricity even at room temperature ,the size of carbon is very small .

A man weighs 145 lb on earth.Part ASpecify his mass in slugs.Express your answer to three significant figures and include the ap

adell [148]

Answer:

a) 4.51 lbf-s^2/ft

b) 65.8 kg

c) 645 N

d) 23.8 lb

e) 65.8 kg

Explanation:

Weight of the man on Earth = 145 lb

a) Mass in slug is...

32.174 pound = 1 slug

145 pound = $x$ slug

$x$ = 145/32.174 = 4.51 lbf-s^2/ft

b) Mass in kg is...

2.205 pounds = 1 kg

145 pounds = $x$ kg

$x$ = 145/2.205 = 65.8 kg

c) Weight in Newton = mg

where

m is mass in kg

g is acceleration due to gravity on Earth = 9.81 m/s^2

Weight in Newton = 65.8 x 9.81 = 645 N

d) If on the moon with acceleration due to gravity of 5.30 ft/s^2,

1 m/s^2 = 3.2808 ft/s^2

$x$ m/s^2 = 5.30 ft/s^2

$x$ = 5.30/3.2808 = 1.6155 m/s^2

weight in Newton = mg = 65.8 x 1.6155 = 106

weight in pounds = 106/4.448 = 23.8 lb

e) The mass of the man does not change on the moon. It will therefore have the same value as his mass here on Earth

mass on the moon = 65.8 kg

Consider a resistor made of pure silicon with a cross-sectional area pf 0.5 μm2, and a length of 50 μm. What is the resistance o

lukranit [14]

Answer: 24 pA

Explanation:

As pure silicon is a semiconductor, the resistivity value is strongly dependent of temperature, as the main responsible for conductivity, the number of charge carriers (both electrons and holes) does.

Based on these considerations, we found that at room temperature, pure silicon resistivity can be approximated as 2.1. 10⁵ Ω cm.

The resistance R of a given resistor, is expressed by the following formula:

R = ρ L / A

Replacing by the values for resistivity, L and A, we have

R = 2.1. 10⁵ Ω cm. (10⁴ μm/cm). 50 μm/ 0.5 μm2

R = 2.1. 10¹¹ Ω

Assuming that we can apply Ohm´s Law, the current that would pass through this resistor for an applied voltage of 5 V, is as follows:

I = V/R = 5 V / 2.1.10¹¹ Ω = 2.38. 10⁻¹¹ A= 24 pA
