A thin plastic membrane is used to separate helium from a gas stream. Under steady-state conditions the concentration of helium

in the membrane is known to be 0.02 and 0.005 kmol/m^3 at the inner and outer surfaces, respectively. If the member is 1mm thick and the binary diffusion coefficient of helium with respect to the plastic is 10^-9 m^2/s, what is the diffusive flux?

Answer:

N_A=1.5*10^-8 kmol/s.m^2

Explanation:

<u>KNOWN: </u>

Molar concentration of helium at the inner and outer surfaces of a plastic membrane. Diffusion coefficient and membrane thickness.  

<u>FIND:</u>

Molar diffusion flux.  

<u>ASSUMPTIONS:</u>

(1) Steady-state conditions, (2) One-dimensional diffusion in a plane wall, (3) Stationary medium, (4) Uniform C = C_A + C_B.  

<u>ANALYSIS:</u> The molar flux may be obtained from

 N_A=D_AB/L(C_A,1-C_A,2)

       =10^-9 m^2/s/0.001 m(0.02-0.005)kmol/m^3

N_A=1.5*10^-8 kmol/s.m^2

<u>COMMENTS:</u> The mass flux is:

n_A,x=M_a*N_A,x

n_A,x=6*10^-8 kg/s m^2

Answer:

Cylindrical

Explanation:

<em>A cylindrical grinder </em><em>is a tool for shaping the exterior of an item. Although cylindrical grinders may produce a wide range of forms, the item must have a central axis of rotation. Shapes such as cylinders, ellipses, cams, and crankshafts are examples of this.</em><em> Cylindrical grinding</em><em> machines are specialized grinding machines that are used to process cylinders, rods, and similar workpieces. The cylinders revolve in one direction between two centers, while the grinding wheel or wheels are close together and rotate in the other direction.</em>

What is the resistance of a resistor if the current flowing through it is 3mA and the voltage across it is 5.3V?
Flura [38]

Answer: 1766.667 Ω = 1.767kΩ

Explanation:

V=iR

where V is voltage in Volts (V), i is current in Amps (A), and R is resistance in Ohms(Ω).

3mA = 0.003 A

Rearranging the equation, we get

R=V/i

Now we are solving for resistance. Plug in 0.003 A and 5.3 V.

R = 5.3 / 0.003

= 1766.6667 Ω

= 1.7666667 kΩ

The 6s are repeating so round off to whichever value you need for exactness.
