True or False. Can Metalloids conduct electricity under certain conditions?

Physics
1 answer:
EleoNora [17]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Conduction: Some metalloids, such as silicon and germanium, can act as electrical conductors under the right conditions, thus they are called semi-conductors. Luster: Silicon for example appears lustrous, but is not malleable or ductile (it is brittle - a characteristic of some nonmetals).

Car B starts at point X and moves clockwise around a circular track at a constant rate of 2 mph. Ten hours later, Car A leaves f
stealth61 [152]

Answer:

20.96 h

Explanation:

The perimeter of the track is 2*pi*r = 20pi miles

In 10 hours, car B would have moved 20miles. So, when Car A leaves from point X, car B is 20pi - 20 miles from point X counter-clockwise and car A.

From here, we can express the distance of A from X like this:

xa = 3t

And the distance of B would be:

xb = 20pi - 20 - 2t

The time t where they would passed each other and put  12 miles between them would be the one where xa - xb is equal to 12:

xa - xb = 12

3t - (20pi - 20 - 2t) = 12

5t = 20 pi - 8

t = (20pi - 8)/5 = 10.96 h

Remember to add this value to the 10 hours car B had already been racing:

t = 20.96h

A car accelerates from rest at 3.00 m/second squared What is the velocity after 5 secs ? What is the displacement after 5 second
andrey2020 [161]

Explanation:

after 5 seconds, the velocity is (5s)(3m/s²) = 15m/s

The displacement after 5s is

x=vo + (1/2)at²

x = 0 + (1/2)(3m/s²)(5s)(5s)

x= 37.5 m

Find the kinetic energy of an electron whose de broglie wavelength is 34.0 nm.
dezoksy [38]
The De Broglie wavelength of the electron is
\lambda=34.0 nm=34 \cdot 10^{-9} m
And we can use De Broglie's relationship to find its momentum:
p= \frac{h}{\lambda}= \frac{6.6 \cdot 10^{-34} Js}{34 \cdot 10^{-9} m}=1.94 \cdot 10^{-26} kg m/s

Given p=mv, with m being the electron mass and v its velocity, we can find the electron's velocity:
v= \frac{p}{m}= \frac{1.94 \cdot 10^{-26} kgm/s}{9.1 \cdot 10^{-31} kg}=  2.13 \cdot 10^4 m/s

This velocity is quite small compared to the speed of light, so the electron is non-relativistic and we can find its kinetic energy by using the non-relativistic formula:
K= \frac{1}{2}mv^2= \frac{1}{2}(9.1 \cdot 10^{-31} kg)(2.13 \cdot 10^4 m/s)^2=2.06 \cdot 10^{-22} J

Imagine a system where a block rests on an inclined plane. The block is then given an initial push so that it starts sliding dow
Helen [10]

Answer:

statement - 'The work done by friction is equal to the sum of the work done by the gravity and the initial push' is correct.

Explanation:

The statement ''The work done by friction is equal to the sum of the work done by the gravity and the initial push" is correct.

The above statement is correct because, the initial push will tend to slide down the block thus the work done by the initial push will be in the downward direction. Also, the gravity always acts in the downward direction. thus, the work done done by the gravity will also be in the downward direction

here, the downward direction signifies the downward motion parallel to the inclined plane.

Now we know that the work done by the friction is against the direction of motion. Thus, the friction force will tend to move the block up parallel to the inclined plane.

Hence, for the block to stop sliding the the above statement should be true.
