You put a diode in a microelectronic circuit to protect the system in case an untrained person installs the battery backward. In the correct forward-bias situation, the current is 255 mA with a potential difference of 116 mV across the diode at room temperature (300 K). If the battery were reversed, so that the potential difference across the diode is still 116 mV but with the opposite sign, what would be the magnitude of the current in the diode

Air is held within a frictionless piston-cylinder container, which is oriented vertically. the mass of the piston is 0.45 kg and the cross-sectional area is 0.0030 m2. initially (state 1) the pressure of the gas is sufficient to support the weight of the piston as well as the force exerted by the atmospheric pressure ( 101.32 kpa). the volume occupied by the air within the cylinder in state 1 is 1.00 liter. one end of a spring (with spring constant k = 1000 n/m) is attached to the top of the piston, while the other end of the spring is attached to a stage that can move vertically. initially the spring is undeflected and therefore exerts no force. then the stage is then moved quasistatically downward a distance of 10.0 cm, at which point the system reaches state 2. the piston-cylinder is not insulated; rather it remains in diathermal contact with the surroundings, which are at a constant temperature of 300 k. what is the change of pressure within the container?

If vx = 7.00 units and vy = -7.60 units, determine the magnitude of v⃗ . determine the direction of v⃗ .

Ameter stick is pivoted at the 0.50-m line. a 3.0-kg object is hung from the 0.15-m line. where should a 5.0-kg object be hung to achieve equilibrium (the meter stick oriented horizontal and motionless)?
