The diffusion of a molecule in a tissue is studied by measuring the uptake of labeled protein into the tissue of thickness L =8 um. Initially, there is no labeled protein in the tissue. At t=0, the tissue is placed in a solution with a molecular concentration of C1=9.4 uM, so the surface concentration at x=0 is maintained at C1. Assume the tissue can be treated as a semi-infinite medium. Surface area of the tissue is A = 4.2 cm2. Calculate the flux into the tissue at x=0 and t=5 s. Please give your answer with a unit of umol/cm2 s. Assuming the diffusion coefficient is known of D=1*10-9 cm2/s

Atank with constant volume contains 2.27 kg of a mixture of water phases (liquid-vapor). in the initial state the temperature and the quality are 127 °c and 0.6, respectively. the mixture is heated until the temperature of 160 oc is reached. illustrate the process in a t-v diagram. then, determine (1) the mass of the vapor in kg at the initial state, (2) the final pressure in kpa.

What is creep? what is stress relaxation?

Liquid flows at steady state at a rate of 2 lb/'s through a pump, which operates to raise the elevation of the liquid 100 ft from control volume inlet to exit. the liquid specific enthalpy at the inlet is 40.09 btu/lb and at the exit is 40.94 btub. the pump requires 3 btu/s of power to operate. if kinetic energy effects are negligible and gravitational acceleration is 32.174 tt/s, the heat transfer rate associated with this steady state process is most closely 1)-2,02 btu/s from the liquid to the surroundings 2)-3.98 btu/s from the surroundings to the liquid. 3)-4.96 btu/s from the surroundings to the liquid. 4)-1.04 btu/s from the liquid to the surroundings.
