Explain why the rate of diffusion of a gas decreases with decrease in temperature

1 answer:

7 0

Temperature: Higher temperatures increase the energy and therefore the movement of the molecules, increasing the rate of diffusion. Lower temperatures decrease the energy of the molecules, thus decreasing the rate of diffusion. Solvent density: As the density of a solvent increases, the rate of diffusion decreases.

What is the voltage across a semiconductor bar if the current through it is 0.17 A? The electron concentration in the bar is 2.7

Anastaziya [24]

Answer:

The voltage across a semiconductor bar is 0.068 V.

Explanation:

Given that,

Current = 0.17 A

Electron concentration $n= 2.7\times10^{18}\ cm^{-3}$

Electron mobility $\mu=1000 cm^2/Vs$

Length = 0.1 mm

Area = 500 μm²

We need to calculate the resistivity

Using formula of resistivity

$\sigma=n\times q\times \mu$

$\rho=\dfrac{1}{\sigma}$

Put the value into the formula

$\rho=\dfrac{1}{2.7\times10^{18}\times10^{6}\times1.6\times10^{-19}\times1000\times10^{-4}}$

$\rho=2\ \mu \Omega m$

We need to calculate the resistance

Using formula of resistance

$R=\dfrac{\rho l}{A}$

$R=\dfrac{2\times10^{-6}\times0.1\times10^{-3}}{500\times(10^{-6})^2}$

$R=0.4\ \Omega$

We need to calculate the voltage

Using formula of voltage

$V= IR$

Put the value into the formula

$V=0.17\times0.4$

$V=0.068\ V$

Hence, The voltage across a semiconductor bar is 0.068 V.

The minimum frequency of light needed to eject electrons from a metal is called the threshold frequency, ????0 . Find the minimu

Reptile [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

Threshold frequency = 4.17 x 10¹⁴ Hz .

minimum energy required = hν where h is plank's constant and ν is frequency .

E = 6.6 x 10⁻³⁴ x 4.17 x 10¹⁴

= 27.52 x 10⁻²⁰ J .

wavelength of radiation falling = 245 x 10⁻⁹ m

Energy of this radiation = hc / λ

c is velocity of light and λ is wavelength of radiation .

= 6.6 x 10⁻³⁴ x 3 x 10⁸ / 245 x 10⁻⁹

= .08081 x 10⁻¹⁷ J

= 80.81 x 10⁻²⁰ J

kinetic energy of electrons ejected = energy of falling radiation - threshold energy

= 80.81 x 10⁻²⁰ - 27.52 x 10⁻²⁰

= 53.29 x 10⁻²⁰ J .

Which best describes the relationship between the direction of energy and wave motion in a transverse wave?

sammy [17]

I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is the second option. The relationship between the direction of energy and wave motion in a transverse wave would be the <span>energy direction is perpendicular to the motion of the wave. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.</span>
