Find the electron and hole mobilities, and the resistivity of intrinsic silicon at 300K. Is intrinsic silicon a semiconductor
tino4ka555 [31]

Answer:

Resistivity = 231.481 K Ohm

Yes, Intrinsic Silicon is the semiconductor.

Explanation:

Solution:

At 300K:

Let suppose mobility of electron in intrinsic semiconductor = M_{e}

Mobility of electron in intrinsic semiconductor is:

M_{e}  = 1300 cm^{2}/volt.sec

Let suppose mobility of hole in intrinsic semiconductor = M_{h}

M_{h} = 500 cm^{2}/volt.sec

We know that, intrinsic silicon semiconductor has equal number of holes and electrons. So,

At 300 K

Intrinsic Carrier Concentration = 1.5 x 10^{10}/cm^{3} = C

And,

Conductivity of intrinsic Silicon is:

σ = C x (M_{h} + M_{e}) e

e = 1.6 x 10^{-19} C

So, plugging in the values, we get:

σ = C x (M_{h} + M_{e}) e

σ = 1.5 x 10^{10} x (500 + 1300) x 1.6 x 10^{-19}

σ = 4.32 x 10^{-6}

So, now we can find the resistivity.

Resistivity = 1/σ

Resistivity = 1/ 4.32 x 10^{-6}

Resistivity = 231.481 K Ohm

Yes, Intrinsic Silicon is the semiconductor.

How does the force of gravity affect the rate of acceleration?
Vesnalui [34]
Gravity lets all objects fall to the ground at the same speed, 9.8 m/s/s. If the force of gravity were stronger, such as 10 m/s/s, the rate of acceleration would be faster.

What is the magnitude of the momentum change of two gallons of water (inertia about 7.3 kg ) as it comes to a stop in a bathtub
aliya0001 [1]

We know that the change in momentum is equals to the product of force and time that is impulse (  F \times t). Therefore, we need to determine the value of that the water is in air by using the second equation of motion,

s=ut+\frac{1}{2} gt^2

Here, u is initial velocity which is zero.

s= \frac{1}{2} gt^2 \\\\ t = \sqrt{\frac{2s}{g} }.

Thus, impulse

= F \times \sqrt{\frac{2s}{g} }

From Newton`s second law,

F =mg

Therefore, impulse

= mg \times \sqrt{\frac{2s}{g} } = m \sqrt{2gs}

Given,  m = 7.3 kg and s = 2.0 m

Substituting these values, we get

Change in momentum = impulse  

= 7.3 \ kg \sqrt{2 \times 9.8 \ m/s^2 \times 2.0 \ m } = 45 .7 \ Ns.
