A) the conductivity of the doped silicon piece will remain the same B) the doped silicon piece will become n-type
C) the doped silicon piece will become p-type D) the resistivity of the doped silicon piece will increase
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) the doped silicon piece will become p-type

Explanation:

p type of semiconductor is obtained when Silicon is doped with a trivalent impurity like Aluminium. Aluminium is a p-type dopant, which means that when a semiconductor i.e. silicon is doped with aluminium, it creates a hole (positively charged carrier) by accepting an electron from the silicon atom. Electrical conductivity of semiconductors increasesand resistivity remains the same

C) NPV D) A life cycle
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) A life cycle

Explanation:

Life Cycle costing includes the costs from each phase of the project life cycle when the total investment costs are calculated. Answer A is incorrect because an opportunity cost is the difference between a chosen investment and the one that is passed up. Answer B is incorrect because sunk costs are costs that have been incurred and cannot be reversed. Answer C is incorrect because net present value (NPV) is the present value of cash inflows(benifits) minus the present value of cash outflows (costs).
