To obtain a more clearly defined picture of the FermiDirac distribution, consider a system of 20 FermiDirac particles sharing 94 units of energy. By drawing diagrams like Figure P10.11, show that there are nine different microstates. Using Equation 10.2, calculate and plot the average number of particles in each energy level from 0 to 14E. Locate the Fermi energy at 0 K on your plot from the fact that electrons at 0 K fill all the levels consecutively up to the Fermi energy. (At 0 K the system no longer has 94 units of energy, but has the minimum amount of 90E.) 1 Microstate8 others? One of the nine equally probable microstates for 20 FD particles with a total energy of 94E.

1. What happens to the thickness of the depletion region in a PN junction when an external voltage is applied to a forward bias diode? 2. When “P” and “N” type semiconductor pieces are brought into close contact, free electrons from the “N” piece will rush over to fill holes in the “P” piece, creating a zone on both sides of the contact region devoid of charge carriers. What is this zone called, and what are its electrical characteristics 3. Is this diode forward-biased or reverse biased? Show soultion please, thanks.

My physics class has turned to online due to the COVID-19 and I am having trouble with some of the word problems my teacher gave me to work on. She presented me with: I am contemplating a career change. If I had 500g of stolen gold jewelry, how much energy would I have to add to it to melt it (so that it was not longer recognizable)? Pretend that it is pure gold. Would you be able to show me how to accomplish this problem so I can see the steps? Thank you for your time. John Payton
