Semiconductors can simplistically be thought of as an intermediate state between insulators and conductors. In a semiconductor, charges are normally bound in place (like in an insulator), but when injected with enough energy, the charges can move freely (like in a conductor). Given what we have observed about the behavior of conductors and insulators in this exploration, what would happen if we replaced the glass rod with a semiconductor material

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The semiconductor rod will conduct electricity

Explanation:

Glass rod does not conduct electricity. Glass is one of the best insulators of electricity. But when a glass rod is replace with a semi conductor, then the semi conductor rod starts conducting electricity as the electrons are free to move.

Semi conductors are special materials in which the energy band lies in between the conductor and the non conductor. The conductivity of a semi conductor increases with the increasing temperature.

In an semi conductor the electrons are free to move and as they starts moving they conduct electricity. Thus a semi conductor rod replacing a glass rod conducts electricity.

What is the correct definition of amplitude

Answers

Answer:

In my textbook's words-

Amplitude, in physics, the maximum displacement or distance moved by a point on a vibrating body or wave measured from its equilibrium position. It is equal to one-half the length of the vibration path.

Explanation:

The correct definition of amplitude is that it is a maximum displacement

that occurs on a vibrating body from one point to the other.

The initial point of the wave is regarded as its equilibrium position which is

equal to one-half the length of the vibration path.

Amplitude helps to calculate the peak value of different types of waves

such as water waves and in electrical appliances so as to know the peak

current suitable for it.

Review Conceptual Example 8 before starting this problem. A block is attached to a horizontal spring and oscillates back and forth on a frictionless horizontal surface at a frequency of 3.96 Hz. The amplitude of the motion is 5.95 x 10-2 m. At the point where the block has its maximum speed, it suddenly splits into two identical parts, only one part remaining attached to the spring. (a) What is the amplitude and (b) the frequency of the simple harmonic motion that exists after the block splits

Answers

Answer:

a)  A' =  0.345  m,  b)  f = 2,800 Hz

Explanation:

b) The angular velocity of a simple harmonic motion is

        w =[tex]\sqrt{\frac{k}{m} }[/tex]

angular velocity and frequency are related

        w = 2π f

we substitute

        f = 1 /2π   √k/m

indicates that the initial frequency value f = 3.96 Hz

in this case the mass is reduced by half

       m ’= m / 2

we substitute

       f = 2π [tex]\sqrt{\frac{k}{m} }[/tex]

       f = √1/2    (2π √k/m)

       f = 1 /√2  3.96

       f = 2,800 Hz

a) The amplitude of the movement is defined by the value of the initial depalzamienot before an external force that initiates the movement.

When the block is divided into two parts of equal masses as if it were exploding, for which we can use the conservation of moment

initial instant. Right before the division

        p₀ = (m₁ + m₁) v

final instant. Right after the split

        p_f = m₁ v '

        p₀ = p_f

        (2 m₁) v = m₁ v ’

        v ’= 2v

At this point we can use conservation of energy for the system with only half the block.

Starting point. Where the block divides

         Em₀o = K = ½ m v'²

Final point. Point of maximum elongation

          Em_f = Ke = ½ k A²

how energy is conserved

         Em₀ = Em_f

         ½ m’ v’² = ½ k A’²

we substitute the previous expressions

         ½ m/2 (2v)² = ½ k A’²

         A’² = 2  m v² / k                       (1)

Let's use the conservation of energy with the initial conditions, before dividing the block

          ½ m v2 = ½ k A2

          A² = mv² / k = 5.95 10⁻² m²

we substitute in 1

         A'² = 2 A²

           

          A ’²=  2 5.95 10⁻²

          A ’²= 11.9 10⁻² m

          A' =  0.345  m

The cylinder with piston locked in place is immersed in a mixture of ice and water and allowed to come to thermal equilibrium withthe mixture. The piston is then moved inward very slowly, that thegas is always in thermal equilibrium with the ice-water mixture,what happens to the following(increase, decrease, same)?

a. volume of gas
b. temperature of gas
c. internal energy of gas,
d. pressure of gas

Answers

Answer:

a. volume of gas:  (decreases)

b. temperature of gas:  (same)

c. internal energy of gas: (same)

d. pressure of gas: (increases)

Explanation:

We have a gas (let's suppose that is ideal) in a piston with a fixed volume V.

Then we put in a reservoir at 0°C (the mixture of water and ice)

remember that the state equation for an ideal gas is:

P*V = n*R*T

and:

U = c*n*R*T

where:

P = pressure

V = volume

n = number of mols

R = constant

c = constant

T = temperature.

Now, we have equilibrium at T = 0°C, then we can assume that T is also a constant.

Then in the equation:

P*V = n*R*T

all the terms in the left side are constants.

P*V = constant

And knowing that:

U = c*n*R*T

then:

n*R*T = U/c

We can replace it in the other equation to get:

P*V = U/c = constant.

Now, the piston is (slowly) moving inwards, then:

a) Volume of the gas: as the piston moves inwards, the volume where the gas can be is smaller, then the volume of the gas decreases.

b) temperature of the gas: we know that the gas is a thermal equilibrium with the mixture (this happens because we are in a slow process) then the temperature of the gas does not change.

c) Internal energy of the gas:

we have:

P*V = n*R*T = constant

and:

P*V = U/c = constant.

Then:

U = c*Constant

This means that the internal energy does not change.

d) Pressure of the gas:

Here we can use the relation:

P*V = constant

then:

P = (constant)/V

Now, if V decreases, the denominator in that equation will be smaller. We know that if we decrease the value of the denominator, the value of the quotient increases.

And the quotient is equal to P.

Then if the volume decreases, we will see that the pressure increases.

Answer:

it’s 2.5 m/s

Explanation:

i’m too lazy but trust

This question can be solved by using the law of conservation of momentum.

The final speed of the lighter 2 kg train is " 2.5 ".

When two moving objects collide with each other, the law of conservation of momentum can be applied to them as follows:

[tex]m_1u_1+m_2u_2=m_1v_1+m_2v_2[/tex]

where,

m₁ = mass of heavier train = 3 kg

m₂ = mass of lighter train = 2 kg

u₁ = initial speed of heavier train = 2.8

u₂ = initial speed of lighter train = 1.6

v₁ = final speed of heavier train = 2.2

v₂ = final speed of lighter train = ?

Therefore,

(3 kg)(2.8) + (2 kg)(1.6) = (3 kg)(2.2) + (2 kg)(v₂)

[tex]v_2 = \frac{5 kg}{2 kg}[/tex]

v₂ = 2.5

The distance from the connection point to the ceiling is 40 ft.

How fast is the weight rising when the worker has walked:

Answers

Complete question is;

A rope, attached to a weight, goes up through a pulley at the ceiling and back down to a worker. The worker holds the rope at the same height as the connection point between the rope and weight. The distance from the connection point to the ceiling is 40 ft. Suppose the worker stands directly next to the weight (i.e., a total rope length of 80 ft) and begins to walk away at a constant rate of 3 ft/s. How fast is the weight rising when the worker has walked:

A) 10 feet

B) 30 feet

Answer:

A) 0.728 ft/s

B) 1.8 ft/s

Explanation:

Let the the position of the worker in ft be denoted by s.

Since he begins to walk away at a constant rate of 3 ft/s, then;

ds/dt = 3 ft/s

Now, the rope will form a triangle, with width "s" and the height 40. Since distance from the connection point to the ceiling = 40 ft

Using pythagoras theorem, we can find the length of the rope on this side of the pulley.

Hence, the length of rope on this side of the pulley = √(s² + 40²)

Meanwhile, on the other side the length will be;

(80) - √(s² + 40²)

Also, height of the weight will be;

h = 40 - ((80) - √(s² + 80²))

h = √(s² + 80²) - 40

Differentiating this, we have;

dh/dt = (ds/dt) × (s/√(s² + 40²))

From earlier, we saw that ds/dt = 3 ft/s

Thus;

dh/dt = 3s/√(s² + 40²)

A) when he has walked 10 ft, it means that s = 10. Thus;

dh/dt = (3 × 10)/√(10² + 40²)

dh/dt = 0.728 ft/s

B) when he has walked 30 ft, it means that s = 30. Thus;

dh/dt = (30 × 3)/√(30² + 40²)

dh/dt = 1.8 ft/s

Answer:

a) E = 0

b) [tex]E = \dfrac{k_e \cdot q}{ r^2 }[/tex]

Explanation:

The electric field for all points outside the spherical shell is given as follows;

a) [tex]\phi_E = \oint E \cdot dA = \dfrac{\Sigma q_{enclosed}}{\varepsilon _{0}}[/tex]

From which we have;

[tex]E \cdot A = \dfrac{{\Sigma Q}}{\varepsilon _{0}} = \dfrac{+q + (-q)}{\varepsilon _{0}} = \dfrac{0}{\varepsilon _{0}} = 0[/tex]

E = 0/A = 0

E = 0

b) [tex]\phi_E = \oint E \cdot dA = \dfrac{\Sigma q_{enclosed}}{\varepsilon _{0}}[/tex]

[tex]E \cdot A = \dfrac{+q }{\varepsilon _{0}}[/tex]

[tex]E = \dfrac{+q }{\varepsilon _{0} \cdot A} = \dfrac{+q }{\varepsilon _{0} \cdot 4 \cdot \pi \cdot r^2}[/tex]

By Gauss theorem, we have;

[tex]E\oint dS = \dfrac{q}{\varepsilon _{0}}[/tex]

Therefore, we get;

[tex]E \cdot (4 \cdot \pi \cdot r^2) = \dfrac{q}{\varepsilon _{0}}[/tex]

The electrical field outside the spherical shell

[tex]E = \dfrac{q}{\varepsilon _{0} \cdot (4 \cdot \pi \cdot r^2) }= \dfrac{q}{4 \cdot \pi \cdot \varepsilon _{0} \cdot r^2 }= \dfrac{q}{(4 \cdot \pi \cdot \varepsilon _{0} )\cdot r^2 }[/tex]

[tex]k_e= \dfrac{1}{(4 \cdot \pi \cdot \varepsilon _{0} ) }[/tex]

Therefore, we have;

[tex]E = \dfrac{k_e \cdot q}{ r^2 }[/tex]
