To find the band gap energy (E_g) of the semiconductor given that its electrical conductivity increases when electromagnetic radiation of wavelength shorter than 29800 Å is incident on it, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Convert Wavelength to Meters**: The given wavelength is 29800 Å. We need to convert this to meters. \[ 1 \, \text{Å} = 10^{-10} \, \text{m} ...
