A jetliner has an air speed of 500 mph. A 200-mph wind is blowing from west to east.

(a) The pilot heads due north. In what direction does the plane fly, and what

is its ground speed? (Hint: Define a frame of reference 5' that moves with the wind. In Sf there is no wind; hence the plane always moves in the direction it is

headed, at 500 mph. Use the velocity transformation to find the components of

the plane's velocity in the ground frame.)

(b) In what direction should the pilot head in order to fly due north? What is

the plane's ground speed in this case?

Asheet of steel 1.5 mm thick has nitrogen atmospheres on both sides at 1200oc and is permitted to achieve a steady-state diffusion condition. the diffusion coefficient for nitrogen in steel at this temperature is 6 x 10- 11 m2 /s, and the diffusion flux is found to be 1.2 x 10-7 kg/m2 -s. also, it is known that the concentration of nitrogen in the steel at the high-pressure surface is 4 kg/m3 . how far into the sheet from this high-pressure side will the concentration be 2.0 kg/m3 ? assume a linear concentration profile.
