Contrast the electron and hole drift velocities through a 10 um (micro meter) layer of intrinsic silicon across which a voltage

of 5V is imposed. Let up = 480cm2/Vs and un=1350cm2/Vs.

Answer:

Explanation:

Since we are considering electron and hole drift velocities, then electric field E will have to be taken into consideration as well.

Where E = V/d...... 1

Drift velocity (u) = -μE. For electron.... 2

Drift velocity (v) = μE. For hole...... 3

Given that : V = 5V and d = 10 um (micro meter)

From equation 1

E = V/d

E = 5V/10×10^-4cm

E = 5V ÷1/1000

E = 5×1000

E = 5000v/cm

From equation 2

Un = -μE.

Un = - 1350cm^2/vs × 5000

= -6750000cm/s

From equation 3

Vp = μE

= 480cm^2/vs × 5000

= 2400000cm/s

Since it was stated in the question that we should contrast between hole drift and electron drift.

6750000/2400000

= 2.8125

Hence the electron drift velocity is 2.8 times that of hole drift velocity indicating that the speed of the electron through the silicon was faster.

A light bulb is switched on and within a few minutes its temperature becomes constant. Is it at equilibrium or steady state.
EleoNora [17]

Answer:

The temperature attains equilibrium with the surroundings.  

Explanation:

When the light bulb is lighted we know that it's temperature will go on increasing as the filament of the bulb has to  constantly dissipates energy during the time in which it is on. Now this energy is dissipated as heat as we know it, this heat energy is absorbed by the material of the bulb which is usually made up of glass, increasing it's temperature. Now we know that any object with temperature above absolute zero has to dissipate energy in form of radiations.

Thus we conclude that the bulb absorbs as well as dissipates it's absorbed thermal energy. we know that this rate is dependent on the temperature of the bulb thus it the temperature of the bulb does not change we can infer that an equilibrium has been reached in the above 2 processes i.e the rate of energy absorption equals the rate of energy dissipation.

Steady state is the condition when the condition does not change with time no matter whatever the surrounding conditions are.
