Answer:

True.

Explanation:

A diode, which allows current to flow in one direction only, consists of two types of semiconductors joined together.

A semiconductor can be defined as a crystalline solid substance that has its conductivity lying between that of a metal and an insulator, due to the effects of temperature or an addition of an impurity. Semiconductors are classified into two main categories;

1. Extrinsic semiconductor.

2. Intrinsic semiconductor.

An intrinsic semiconductor is a crystalline solid substance that is in its purest form and having no impurities added to it. Examples of intrinsic semiconductor are Germanium and Silicon.

In an intrinsic semiconductor, the number of free electrons is equal to the number of holes. Also, in an intrinsic semiconductor the number of holes and free electrons is directly proportional to the temperature; as the temperature increases, the number of holes and free electrons increases and vice-versa.

In an intrinsic semiconductor, each free electrons (valence electrons) produces a covalent bond.

Inside a freely falling runaway elevator, your
nasty-shy [4]

The answer is apparent weight is zero.

You are still accelerating downwards at 9.8m/s^2 (if you are on Earth).

You still are being affected by the Earth's gravity.

Not all because of the previous two statements.

Not none because apparent weight is zero as you are falling.

if 100 grams is equal to 1 newton of force, and the water displaced by an object would have a mass of 40 grams, what is its buoy
irina [24]

Let's take the actual question section all by itself:

If an object displaces 40 grams of water, then the buoyant force on the object is equal to the weight of 40 grams of water (Archimedes' principle)... which is equal to the weight of 40 grams of ANY substance.

Weight = (mass) x (gravity)

Weight = (0.040 kg) x (9.8 m/s²)

<em>Weight =  0.392 Newton</em>

so that's the buoyant force acting on the object.


Now, to deal with the first phrase of the question ... everything before the first comma ... you said "100 grams is equal to 1 newton of force".  This phrase is really quite meaningless, and there's nothing to be done with it.

A quantity of mass is never "equal to" a force.

Fortunately, whatever this is supposed to mean, it's not needed to answer the rest of the question.

A 20kg mass approaches a spring at a speed of 30 m/s. The mass compresses the spring 12cm before coming to a stop. Calculate the
Oksana_A [137]

Answer:

625000 N/ m

Explanation:

m= 20 kg

v= 30 m/s

x= 12 cm

k = ?

Here when the mass when hits at spring its speed is

Vi= 30 m/s

Finally it comes to rest after compressing for 12 cm

i-e Vf = 0 m/s

Distance= S= 12 cm = 0.12 m

using

2aS= Vf2 - Vi2

==> 2a ×0.12 = o- 30 × 30

==> a = 900 ÷ 0.24 = 3750 m/sec2

Now we know;

F = ma

F= -Kx

==> ma= -kx

==> 20 × 3750 = -K × 0.12

==> k = 625000 N/ m
