A laser beam of intensity I irradiates at normal incidence a face of area A of a cubical sample of intrinsic silicon of volume V. The photons from the laser beam are absorbed uniformly throughout the Si sample.

(i) If the quantum efficiency of intrinsic Si is ?, determine an expression for the electron-hole pair generation rate in the Si sample.   

(ii) Determine an expression for the excess carrier concentration, ??, under steady state conditions.

(iii) Calculate the ratio of the conductivity under illumination, ?light, to the conductivity without illumination, ?dark, for a Si sample of V =1 cm3,

A = 1 cm2, I = 1 mW cm-2, ? = 632.8 nm and ? = 0.3.

A physicist builds a parallel-plate capacitor with adjustable spacing between the plates. When the plates are at their initial separation, the capacitance is 7.00 µF.

(a) At this capacitance, the capacitor is connected to a 18.00 V battery. After fully charging, how much energy (in µJ) is stored in the capacitor?

(b) The battery is then disconnected. Without discharging the capacitor, the physicist then doubles the separation between the plates. At this point, how much energy (in µJ) is stored in the capacitor?

(c) Without changing this new separation between the plates, the capacitor is discharged, and then reconnected to the 18.00 V battery. Now, after fully charging, how much energy (in µJ) is stored in the capacitor?

A capacitor consists of two concentric spherical shells. The outer radius of the inner shell is a = 0.1 m and the inner radius of the outer shell is b = 0.2 m. a. What is the capacitance, C, of this capacitor? b. Suppose the maximum possible electric field at the outer surface of the inner shell before the air starts to ionize E max(r=a) = 3.0*10^6 V/m . What is the maximum possible charge on the inner capacitor? c. What is the maximum amount of energy stored in this capacitor? d. When E (r=a) = 3.0*10^6 V/m, what is the potential difference between the shells?

Question 10 (5 pts.):​ Why do you think cholera would choose to colonize the intestines of its host, as opposed to other parts of the body? (Try to think about what the bacteria might gain from living in the intestines.)

Question 11 (5 pts.):​ Why do you think it is important for ​V. cholerae​ to attach themselves firmly to the epithelial cells of the intestines, as shown in the picture above?

Question 12 (5 pts.):​ Suggest a reason why ​V. cholerae​ would benefit by causing their hosts to have excessive, watery diarrhea? How could this help the bacteria in their cycle of infection?

Consider the following special cases of collisions. In all cases, a cart of m1m1 comes in with a velocity vv and hits a cart m2m2coming in with velocity −vv (same speed vv from the opposite direction). Most of these are answerable with either intuition or with mathematics. What are the final velocities of both carts if:

a. The collision is elastic, and both carts are the same mass? (Two swords collide in a swordfight)

b. The collision is inelastic, and both carts are the same mass? (Two identical twins charge-tackle each other)

c. The collision is elastic, and the mass of the first cart is much larger than the mass of the second cart? (Sword hits a dagger in a swordfight)

I have some questions that I need answe for them

1) Action potentials are said to be “all or none” responses. Why does the CAP that you measure in the frog sciatic nerve give a graded response?


2) Briefly describe the absolute refractory period in relation to V-gated sodium channels, V-gated potassium channels, and the membrane permeability to those ions.


3) When you determined the relative refractory period, you actually recorded the interval when a few neurons entered the relative refractory period. Explain why this interval signifies the beginning of the relative refractory period and not the absolute refractory period.
