When an electron in a valence band is raised to a conduction band by sufficient light energy, semiconductors start conducting __

______.
Engineering

garri49 [273]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

This band gap also allows semiconductors to convert light into electricity in photovoltaic cells and to emit light as LEDs when made into certain types of diodes. Both these processes rely on the energy absorbed or released by electrons moving between the conduction and valence bands.

How would you expect an increase in the austenite grain size to affect the hardenability of a steel alloy? Why?
seraphim [82]

Answer:

The hardenability increases with increasing austenite grain size, because the grain boundary area is decreasing. This means that the sites for the nucleation of ferrite and pearlite are being reduced in number, with the result that these transformations are slowed down, and the hardenability is therefore increased.

Conditions of special concern: i. Suggest two reasons each why distillation columns are run a.) above or b.) below ambient press
lutik1710 [3]

Solution :

Methods for selling pressure of a distillation column :

a). Set, \text{based on the pressure required to condensed} the overhead stream using cooling water.

  (minimum of approximate 45°C condenser temperature)

b). Set, \text{based on highest temperature} of bottom product that avoids decomposition or reaction.

c). Set, \text{based on available highest } not utility for reboiler.

Running the distillation column above the ambient pressure because :

The components to be distilled have very high vapor pressures and the temperature at which they can be condensed at or below the ambient pressure.

Run the reactor at an evaluated temperature because :

a). The rate of reaction is taster. This results in a small reactor or high phase conversion.

b). The reaction is endothermic and equilibrium limited increasing the temperature shifts the equilibrium to the right.

Run the reaction at an evaluated pressure because :

The reaction is gas phase and the concentration and hence the rate is increased as the pressure is increased. This results in a smaller reactor and /or higher reactor conversion.

The reaction is equilibrium limited and there are few products moles than react moles. As increase in pressure shifts the equilibrium to the right.

weight of 1000 pounds is suspended from two cables. The allowable stress in the cables is 1500 psi. Find the minimum diameter fo
kari74 [83]

Answer:

The minimum diameter for each cable should be 0.65 inches.

Explanation:

Since, the load is supported by two ropes and the allowable stress in each rope is 1500 psi. Therefore,

(1/2)(Weight/Cross Sectional Area) = Allowable Stress

Here,

Weight = 1000 lb

Cross-sectional area = πr²

where, r = minimum radius for each cable

(1/2)(1000 lb/πr²) = 1500 psi

500 lb/1500π psi = r²

r = √1.061 in²

r = 0.325 in

Now, for diameter:

Diameter = 2(radius) = 2r

Diameter = 2(0.325 in)

<u>Diameter = 0.65 in</u>
