(a) What is the probability of an electron state being filled if it is located at the Fermi level?

(b) If the probability that a state is filled at the conduction band edge (Ec) is precisely equal to the probability that a state is empty at the valence band edge (Ev), where is the Fermi level located?

(c) The Maxwell-Boltzmann distribution is often used to approximate the Fermi-Dirac distribution function. On the same set of axes, sketch both distributions as a function of (E- Ef)/kT. Consider only positive values of E- Ef. For what range of (E- Ef)/kT is the Maxwell- Boltzmann approximation accurate to within 10%?

a) the probability of an electron state being filled if it is located at the Fermi level is = 1/2

b) The Fermi level is exactly at the middle of the valence band and the conduction band

c) The Maxwell - Boltzmann approximation accurate to within 10% for

One of the benefits of working with chlorinated polyvinyl chloride (CPVC) pipe is that it can be cut with a variety of different tools that don’t require any electricity or heat. However, different cutting methods are preferred over others, depending on the application.

When cutting CPVC pipe, it is important to make a square, flat cut. An uneven cut limits the bonding area and weakens the fitting.

To help you make the best possible cut, we’ve put together the following dos and don’ts when cutting CPVC pipe in different situations.
