The energy band gap of GaAs is 1.4eV. calculate the optimum wavelength of light for photovoltaic generation in a GaAs solar cell
Viktor [21]

Answer:

λ = 8.88 x 10⁻⁷ m = 888 nm

Explanation:

The energy band gap is given as:

Energy Gap = E = 1.4 eV

Converting this to Joules (J)

E = (1.4 eV)(1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ J/1 eV)

E = 2.24 x 10⁻¹⁹ J

The energy required for photovoltaic generation is given as:

E = hc/λ

where,

h = Plank's Constant = 6.63 x 10⁻³⁴ J.s

c = speed of light = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

λ = wavelength of light = ?

Therefore,

2.24 x 10⁻¹⁹ J = (6.63 x 10⁻³⁴ J.s)(3 x 10⁸ m/s)/λ

λ = (6.63 x 10⁻³⁴ J.s)(3 x 10⁸ m/s)/(2.24 x 10⁻¹⁹ J)

<u>λ = 8.88 x 10⁻⁷ m = 888 nm</u>

RideAnS [48]
Given that the arc length is:
s = ∫ √[1² + (dy/dx)²] dx 

<span>So arc length between the two points is then: </span>
<span>s = 2*20sinh(x/20)
   = 40sinh(x/20) </span>

<span>The straight distance between the two points is : d = 2x </span>
<span>So, x = d/2.
         = 40/2
         = 20 m </span>

<span>Plug this into the arc length equation to get:
s = 40sinh[20/20)]
   =40* ½ (e - 1/e) </span>
<span>   = 47 m</span>

No, the car travels 1 metre in 5s at the start which is 0.2m/s, while the second meter it travels one metre in 8 seconds which is 0.125 m/s, the speed changes therefore it is not constant during the two metres the car travels

A rope is tied to a box and used to pull the box 2.3 m along a horizontal floor. The rope makes an angle of 30∘ with the horizon
Savatey [412]

Answer:

Answered

Explanation:

A) The work done by gravity is zero because displacement and the gravitational force are perpendicular to each other.

W= FS cosθ

θ= 90 ⇒cos90 = 0 ⇒W= 0

B) work done by tension

W= Tcosθ×S= 5cos30×2.30= 10J

C) Work done by friction force

W= f×s=1×2.30= 2.30 J

D) Work done by normal force is Zero because the displacement and the normal force are perpendicular to each other.

E) The net work done= Work done by tension in the rope - frictional work

=10-2.30= 7.7 J
