A protein diffuses from left to right through a thick biological
membrane (thickness =
10 cm) having a cross-sectional area of 6 cm2. The diffusion
coefficient D for this
membrane-protein system is 5.0 x 10-10 m2/s. A total mass of 8.0 x
10-14 kg of the
protein is transported across the membrane in 15 sec. If the
protein density on the left
side of the membrane is 3.77 x 10-3 kg/m3, compute the protein
density on the right
side of the membrane.

Consider a biological membrane 10.0 nm thick. The diffusion coefficient for potassium ions crossing this biological membrane is 1.00 X 10 -16 m2/s. a) Draw a representation of the membrane and the diffusion of potassium ions. b) Calculate the flow rate of potassium ions moving across an area 250 nm by 250 nm, if the concentration difference across the membrane is 0.500 mol/m3.
A tube has a length of 1.7 cm and a cross-sectional area of 8.0 x 10-4 m2. The tube is filled with a solution of sugar in water. The diffusion constant of sugar in water is 5.0 x 10-10 m2/s. A difference in concentration of 3.5 x 10-3 kg/m3 is maintained between the ends of the tube. How much time is required for 9.0 x 10-13 kg of sugar to be transported though the tube in seconds?
Calculate the mass of a solid gold rectangular bar that has dimensions of 4.00 cm x 10.5 cm x 27.5 cm.

Problem 1. (75') This is a 1-D steady state problem. Only object A generates heat per unit volume of dA 2 x 106W/m3. The left surface of A is insulated and the right surface of B is exposed to a fluid. Temperature of the fluid is To 300 K. The convective heat transfer coefficient is h 1000 W/m2/K Thermal conductivity of A is kA 30 W/m/K, and B is k 20 W/m/K Thickness of each object is: IA-30 mm, 1':...
6 10 11 13 14 15 16 Water flows from left reservoir to right reservoir in a 5 cm diameter pipe system as shown in the figure. The pipe is made out of cast iron which has a sand roughness of 0.26 mm. Discharge in the pipe system is given as 0.006 m3/s. Dynamic viscosity of water is 1.3 x 10 -3 kg/m.s. Density of water is 1000 kg/m3. Neglect sudden expansion/contraction. Neglect minor head losses. Determine the major head...
