1. a) iii) Name an application of a combination of a p-type and n-type semiconductor.

A common application is a diode.

1. b) Calculate the number of electrons that flow through a conductor if a current of 2 A flows for 4 s (charge on an electron = 1.6×10−191.6 \times 10^{-19} C).

  1. Calculate the total charge QQ that flows.

    The relationship between current (II), charge (QQ), and time (tt) is given by Q=I×tQ = I \times t.

    Q=2 A×4 sQ = 2\, \text{A} \times 4\, \text{s} Q=8 CQ = 8\, \text{C}
  2. Calculate the number of electrons (nn).

    The total charge QQ is also equal to the number of electrons (nn) multiplied by the charge of a single electron (ee).

    Q=n×eQ = n \times e n=Qen = \frac{Q}{e} n=8 C1.6×10−19 Cn = \frac{8\, \text{C}}{1.6 \times 10^{-19}\, \text{C}} n=5×1019n = 5 \times 10^{19}

    The number of electrons that flow through the conductor is 5×1019\boxed{\text{}5 \times 10^{19}\text{}}.
