A sheet of steel 1.4 mm thick has nitrogen atmospheres on both sides at 1200°C and is permitted to achieve a steady-state diffus

ion condition. The diffusion coefficient for nitrogen in steel at this temperature is 7.0 × 10-11 m2/s, and the diffusion flux is found to be 1.0 × 10-7 kg/m2-s. Also, it is known that the concentration of nitrogen in the steel at the high-pressure surface is 4.9 kg/m3. How far into the sheet from this high-pressure side will the concentration be 3.6 kg/m3? Assume a linear concentration profile.

Answer:

9.1 × 10^-4m

Explanation:

From Fick's first law of diffusion:

J = -D dc/dx

Where J ,= diffusion flux

D = diffusion coefficient and dc/dx = concerntration gradient

Since we can assume a linear concentration profile, we rewrite the equation above as:

J = - D ◇c/◇x = -D (Cs - Cx)/(0 - x)

Where Cs = surface concerntration

C = concerntration of depth

X = target variable

J = diffusion flux = 1.0×10^-7kg/m^2/s

D ,= diffusion coefficient = 7.0×10^-12m^2/s

Substituting into the equation

1.0 ×10^-7 = (-7.0×10^-11)(4.9 -3.6) / ( 0 - X)

1.0 × 10^-7 = (-9.1 ×10^-11)/(0 - X)

Cross multiply

(1.0 ×10^-7) ×(0-X) = (-9.1 ×10^-11)

X = (-9.1 × 10^-11)/(-1.0 × 10^-7)

X = 9.1 × 10^-4m

A silver bar 0.125 meter long is subjected to a temperature change from 200°C to 100°C. What will be the length of the bar after
Delicious77 [7]
\Delta L=  \alpha L_0 (T_f-T_i)

= (18 x 10^-6 /°C)(0.125 m)(100° C - 200 °C)

= -0.00225 m

New length = L + ΔL
= 1.25 m + (-0.00225 m)
= 1.248

As mass increases what happens to the kinetic energy
AnnyKZ [126]
As mass increases kinetic energy also increases; kinetic energy is directly proportional to mass so whatever is done to either affects the other one the same. i hope this helps :)

Why are bells made up of metals instead of wood?
Morgarella [4.7K]
The main reason why bells are made up of metals instead of wood is because metal is much more dense than wood, meaning that it resonates at much stronger frequencies. Wood has far too much air in it to make loud noises when struck.

Explain the following observations:
Deffense [45]

Answer and Explanation:

a. An oxygen-filled balloon is not able to float in the air, because the oxygen inside the balloon is of the same density, that is, the same "weight" as the oxygen outside the balloon and present in the atmosphere. The balloon can only float if the gas inside it is less dense than atmospheric oxygen. Helium gas is less dense than atmospheric gas, so if a balloon is filled with helium gas, that balloon will be able to float because of the difference in density.

b. The ship is able to float in the water because its steel construction is hollow and full of air. This makes the average density of this ship less than the density of water, which makes the ship lighter than water and for this reason, this ship is able to float. In addition, the ship is partially immersed, allowing the weight of the ship on the water to counteract the buoyant force that the water promotes on the ship. Weight and buoyant are two opposing forces that keep the ship afloat.
