The energy of a photon of sodium light $(\lambda = 589 \text{ nm})$ is equal to the band gap of a semiconductor. Find the minimum energy $E$ in $eV$ required to create an electron-hole pair.

Identify the semiconductor devices whose characteristics are given below,in the order $(a), (b), (c), (d)$.

The time variations of signals $A, B$ and $C$ are shown below. Choose the correct statement.

Two amplifiers are connected one after the other in series (cascade). The first amplifier has a voltage gain of $10$ and the second has a voltage gain of $20$. If the input signal is $0.01\, V$,the output $ac$ signal will be........$V$.

$Ge$ and $Si$ diodes conduct at $0.3 \, V$ and $0.7 \, V$ respectively. In the following figure,if the $Ge$ diode connection is reversed,the value of $V_0$ changes by how many volts?

Given below are two statements:
Statement $I$: Photovoltaic devices can convert optical radiation into electricity.
Statement $II$: Zener diode is designed to operate under reverse bias in the breakdown region.
In the light of the above statements,choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:
