A silicon sample is doped with phosphorus at 1 part per 1.00 x 106. Phosphorus acts as an electron donor, providing one free electron per atom. The density of silicon is 2.33 g/cm3, and its atomic mass is 28.09 g/mol.
Calculate the number of free (conduction) electrons per unit volume of the doped silicon.

Question 6

Two initially uncharged identical metal spheres, 1 and 2, are connected by an insulating spring (unstretched length L0 = 1.00 m, spring constant k = 25.0 N/m), as shown in the figure. Charges +q and -q are then placed on the spheres, and the spring contracts to length L = 0.635 m. Recall that the force exerted by a spring is Fs = kΔx, where Δx is the change in the spring’s length from its equilibrium length. Determine the charge q. If the spring is coated with metal to make it conducting, what is the new length of the spring?
