A rectangular playground is 24 meters wide and has the same area as another rectangular playground that is 64 meters long and 48 meters wide. What is the perimeter of the first playground?
Area of the second playground: $64 \times 48 = 3072$ square meters.
The first playground has width 24 m and the same area:
$24 \times \text{length} = 3072$
$\text{length} = \dfrac{3072}{24} = 128$ meters.
Perimeter $= 2(24 + 128) = 2 \times 152 = \mathbf{304}$ meters.
Reverse-biased PN junction reverse current is of order:
Reverse saturation current is very small (μA range for Si).
Which of the following compounds is the strongest acid?
Acidity of $\text{CHX}_3$ compounds depends on the electron-withdrawing ability of the substituents X, which stabilize the conjugate base carbanion $\text{CX}_3^-$.
- CN is an extremely strong electron-withdrawing group (by both induction and resonance).
- $\text{CH(CN)}_3$ has three CN groups, creating maximum negative charge delocalization on the carbanion — giving the most stable conjugate base.
- Halogens: electronegativity order is F > Cl > Br > I, so CHCl$_3$ > CHBr$_3$ > CHI$_3$ in acidity.
Overall: CH(CN)$_3$ is the strongest acid due to the powerful electron-withdrawing CN groups.
