5. PROBLEM Compare the mean free path of C-12 to the diffusion length.
Cross section: 3) Mean & Free. Calculate the mean free path in Earth's atmosphere. Use sea level conditions and the collision cross section section under what conditions would the mean free path equal 10km? Compare those conditions to your first calculation For the same cross- σ 10-15cm
Problem 4: The mean free path of a gas, 2, is defined as the average distance traveled by molecules between collisions. A commonly used formula for estimating 2 of an ideal gas is: where џ is the viscosity of the gas, is the density of air. T is the temperature in Kelvin, and C is an experimentally determined constant. Calculate the mean free path of air (in units of nm) at 25 °C and standard atmospheric pressure if the viscosity...
Problem 3 - Mean free path (8 marks) Let's assume the opacity inside of a star is constant. The optical depth is T = not where o is the collisional cross-section of an ion. If the optical depth is T = 1, then the photon can't go very far before it's scattered. We write the mean free path as L which is the average distance a photon can go before being scattered. a. If the conditions in the Sun have...
Problem 2 Calculate the electron scattering rate, t, the mean free path A, the electrical conductivity o, and the thermal conductivity k of aluminum at 300 K. If the temperature is increased by 5%, how will 5, 1, 5, and xchange?
The net flow of neutrons in a particular direction is called the: Diffusion flux current mean free path
Use the formula to estimate the mean free path of air at 20°C and 7 kPa. Assume the viscosity of air to be equal to 1.80E−5 N⋅s/m. (Round of the value to four decimal places.)
Problem 2. Find the mean free path of nitrogen gas at pressure p = 2.5 atm and temperature T = 56.5°F. The diameter of a nitrogen molecule is d= 0.3 nm. What is the average rate of collisions?
Which of the following is the best explanation of why gas diffusion at 1 atm and 298K is 1000x slower than the mean velocity. (a) The mean free path is about 50 cm; (b) The distance between molecules is 5 cm; (c) Real gasses at high density have repulsive interactions; (d) Real gasses near their dew point have attractive interactions; (e) The mean free path is about 60 nm
20.4 The mean free path of molecules in a gas is 360 nm. Part A What will be the mean free path if the pressure is doubled while all other state variables are held constant? Par A: What will be the mean free path if the absolute temperature is doubled while all other state variables are held constant?
Chapter 5 1. Compare and contrast simple diffusion with facilitated diffusion being sure to mention direction of movement, source of energy, and how movement across the membrane occurs. 2. Compare and contrast the terms active transport with facilitated diffusion addressing the same issues as above. 3. Draw a diagram of a membrane receptor and include the following details. Include a depiction of the plasma membrane with which it is associated; label the locations of the extracellular space, the cytoplasm, and...
