A common small-molecular weight (and therefore fast diffusing for an organic molecule) ingredient in perfumes is vanillin, the p

rimary component of vanilla bean extract (molecular weight = 152). the d for vanillin in air is 0.114 cm2/s. if i open a bottle of vanilla on the other side of the room 3 meters away, and the air is still so there is no convection, about how long would i have to wait before i could expect to smell the vanilla?

Answer:

2.54 seconds

Explanation:

To find the necessary information:

molecular weight = 152 g/mol

diffusion coefficient = 0.114 cm²/s

Distance = 3 meters

The key principle here is Fick's Law of diffusion, which states that the flux correlates directly with the concentration difference. Essentially:

where dc = the change in concentration

D = diffusion coefficient

Dx = distance change, cm

Solving yields:

j = dc/3 (-0.114)

Therefore, t = 2.54 seconds

An axle passes through a pulley. Each end of the axle has a string that is tied to a support. A third string is looped many time
Keith_Richards [3271]

Answer:

ΔL = MmRgt / (2m + M)

Explanation:

The system starts from rest, so the change in angular momentum correlates directly to its final angular momentum.

ΔL = L − L₀

ΔL = Iω − 0

ΔL = ½ MR²ω

To determine the angular velocity ω, begin by drawing a free body diagram for both the pulley and the block.

For the block, two forces act: the weight force mg downward and tension force T upward.

For the pulley, three forces are present: weight force Mg down, a reaction force up, and tension force T downward.

For the sum of forces in the -y direction on the block:

∑F = ma

mg − T = ma

T = mg − ma

For the sum of torques on the pulley:

∑τ = Iα

TR = (½ MR²) (a/R)

T = ½ Ma

Substituting gives:

mg − ma = ½ Ma

2mg − 2ma = Ma

2mg = (2m + M) a

a = 2mg / (2m + M)

The angular acceleration of the pulley is:

αR = 2mg / (2m + M)

α = 2mg / (R (2m + M))

Finally, the angular velocity after time t is:

ω = αt + ω₀

ω = 2mg / (R (2m + M)) t + 0

ω = 2mgt / (R (2m + M))

Substituting into the previous equations gives:

ΔL = ½ MR² × 2mgt / (R (2m + M))

ΔL = MmRgt / (2m + M)

A charge of uniform volume density (40 nC/m3) fills a cube with 8.0-cm edges. What is the total electric flux through the surfac
Keith_Richards [3271]

Answer:

The flux across the cube's surface is 2.314\ Nm^{2}/C.

Solution:

According to the details provided:

Cube edge length, a = 8.0 cm = 8.0\times 10^{- 2}\ m.

Volume charge density, \rho_{v} = 40 nC/m^{3} = 40\times {- 9}\ C/m^{3}.

Now,

To find the electric flux:

\phi = \frac{q}{\epsilon_{o}}

where

\phi = electric flux

\epsilon_{o} = 8.85\times 10^{- 12}\ F/m = permittivity of vacuum.

The volume charge density for this scenario is described by:

\rho_{v} = \frac{Total\ charge, q}{Volume of cube, V}

Cube volume, V = a^{3}.

Thus,

V = (8.0\times 10^{- 2})^{3} = 5.12\times 10^{- 4}\ m^{3}.

The total charge can be derived from equation (2):

q = \rho_{v}V = 40\times {- 9}\times 5.12\times 10^{- 4}.

q = 2.048\times 10^{-11}\ F = 20.48\ pF.

Now, insert the value of 'q' into equation (1):

\phi = \frac{2.048\times 10^{-11}}{8.85\times 10^{- 12}} = 2.314\ Nm^{2}/C.
