As everybody knows that Black objects are black because almost all the light that falls on them is absorbed into the material. Little or no light is reflected back toward our eyes, therefore we see black.

It is also known that, since black objects absorbs all the light they ultimately become heated-up..!

If we see the snow in visible light, It appears to be White. But in the Infrared, it appears to be black. Does that mean that the Snow will feel warm in Infrared lights?

Consider a GaAs p-n junction diode. The p-type acceptor is Zn, with a dopant concentration of 2 x 10^17 cm^-3 and the n-tpye donor is Si, with a dopant concentration of 5 x 10^16 cm^-3. Working at temp= 300 K.

a) Calculate the Fermi Level in the p-type material. Assume that the hole density is equal to the density of the p-dopant atoms.

b) Performing the same calculation for the n-type material gives a fermi level of 1.363 eV. What is the zero-bias built- in potential at the junction?

c) Calculate the width of the depletion zone for this case

An object is thrown straight up into the air. The object leaves the person’s hand with an upward velocity of magnitude 27 m/s. Assume that the object is in free fall, i.e., neglect air resistance. Draw a motion diagram and graphs (two graphs: one for vertical position vs. time, and one for vertical velocity vs. time) from the time when the object leaves the person’s hand to 5.0 seconds later. Include all the information on the graph that you can determine about the object’s motion, such as its position and velocity at 5.0 seconds. Assume that the person does not catch the object or interfere with it during the 5.0 seconds time interval.

A hockey stick exerts a horizontal force of magnitude 3.0 N on a 0.25-kg puck. While under the influence of the stick's force (and possibly some other forces), the puck moves 2.0 m. a) Is it possible that the stick does 6.0 J of work on the puck? If so, what is the angle between the stick's force and the puck's displacement while the force acts? b) Is it possible that the stick does - 3.0 J of work on the puck? If so, what is the angle between the stick's force and the puck's displacement? c) Is it possible that the stick does -6.0 J of work on the puck? If so, what is the angle between the stick's force and the puck's displacement? d) Is it possible that the stick does 6.0 J of work on the puck? If so, what is the angle between the stick's force and the puck's displacement? e) If the puck possesses an initial speed of 4.0 m/s, and then 4.0 J of work is done on the puck, find its final speed. Ignore friction. f) If the puck possesses an initial speed of 4.0 m/s, and then -2.0 J of work is done on the puck, find its final speed. Ignore friction.

A 765-kg two-stage rocket is traveling at a speed of 6.10×103 m/s away from Earth when a predesigned explosion separates the rocket into two sections of equal mass that then move with a speed of 2.30×103 m/s relative to each other along the original line of motion.

Part A

What is the speed of each section (relative to Earth) after the explosion?

Part B

How much energy was supplied by the explosion? [Hint: What is the change in kinetic energy as a result of the explosion?]
