Answer:

The majority charge carriers carry most of the electric charge or electric current in the semiconductor. Hence, majority charge carriers are mainly responsible for electric current flow in the semiconductor. The charge carriers that are present in small quantity are called minority

Answer:

carriers and so are called majority carriers. A few thermally generated electrons will also exist in the p side; these are termed minority carriers. On the n side the electrons are the majority carriers, while the holes are the minority carriers. Near the junction is a region having no free-charge…

Answer: $32.65\ m$

Explanation:

Given

mass of laptop m=2 kg

The velocity of car u=8 m/s

The coefficient of static friction is $\mu_s=0.4$

The coefficient of kinetic friction is $\mu_k=0.2$

As the car is moving, so the coefficient of kinetic friction comes into play

deceleration offered by friction $\mu_kg=0.2\times 9.8\ m/s^2$

Using the equation of motion $v^2-u^2=2as\\$

insert the values

$0^2-8^2=2(-0.2\times 9.8)s\\\\s=\dfrac{64}{1.96}\\\\s=32.65\ m$

a water-balloon launcher with mass 4 kg fires a 0.5 kg balloon with a velocity of 3 m/s to the east. what is the recoil velocity

kotykmax [81]

I think we will use the law of conservation of linear momentum;
M1V1 = M2V2
M1 = 4 kg (mass of the water balloon launcher)
V1=?
M2= 0.5 kg ( mass of the balloon)
V2 = 3 m/s

Therefore; 4 V1 = 0.5 × 3
4V1= 1.5
V1= 1.5/4
= 0.375 m/s
