(2)(i) They are pure semiconductors with impurities less than 1 and have tetravalent cystals

(ii) Presense of mobile charge carrier is intrinsic property of material

(iii) No doping or addition of impurities required.

(4)Given;

F=50N, K=100N/m

But,

F= k.e

Therefore, 50=100 x extension(e)

e= 50/100

= 0.5m

But,

Workdone = 1/2(F x e)

=1/2(50 x 0.5)

=1/2(25)

=12.5Nm
