A potential barrier of 0.4 V exists across a p-n junction. An electron enters the junction from the n-side with a speed of 6.0 × 105 ms–1. The speed with which electrons enters the p side will be
\(\frac{x}{3} × 10^5\) ms-1
the value of x is _________.
(Give mass of electron = 9 × 10–31 kg, charge on electron = 1.6 × 10–19 C)
The correct answer is 14
Conserving energy,
\(\frac{1}{2} mv² = \frac{1}{2} m ( 6 × 10^5)^2 - 0.4eV\)
\(⇒ v = \sqrt{( 6 × 10^5)^2 - \frac{2 × 1.6 × 10^{-19} × 0.4}{9 × 10^{-31} }}\)
\(=\sqrt{36 × 10^{10} - \frac{1.28}{9} × 10^{12}}\)
\(⇒ v = \frac{14}{3} × 10^5 m/s\)
⇒ x = 14
There , the speed will be 14 m/s
A black body is at a temperature of 2880 K. The energy of radiation emitted by this body with wavelength between 499 nm and 500 nm is U1, between 999 nm and 1000 nm is U2 and between 1499 nm and 1500 nm is U3. The Wien's constant, b = 2.88×106 nm-K. Then,
