In a box model, the maximum distance to transport particle across a city is calculated as follows: Approximate length of one side is 30 miles, width is 28 miles and the mixing height is 2 miles. For a pollutant particle emitted on one side of the town, what is the maximum time it will take to be transported across the city with wind velocity of 10 miles per hour (to the nearest hour)?

“Diffusion” sounds slow—and over everyday dis-tances it is—but on the scale of a cell it is very fast. The aver-age instantaneous velocity of a particle in solution—that is,the velocity between the very frequent collisions—isv = (kT/m)½where k = 1.38 × 10–16 g cm2/K sec2, T = temperature in K(37°C is 310 K), and m = mass in g/molecule.Calculate the instantaneous velocity of a watermolecule (molecular mass = 18 daltons), a glucose mol-ecule (molecular mass = 180 daltons), and a myoglobinmolecule (molecular mass = 15,000 daltons) at 37°C. Justfor fun, convert these numbers into kilometers/hour. Before you do any calculations, try to guess whether themolecules are moving at a slow crawl (<1 km/hr), an easywalk (5 km/hr), or a record-setting sprint (40 km/hr).

In real recording situations there are multiple devices that each have their own sampling rate. An audio file's sample rate is determined by the set up's lowest quality (smallest) sampling rate. Examine these recording set ups and determine the Nyquist frequency of the resulting digital file: Set up 1: 1. A microphone with a sampling rate of 48,000HZ 2. An audio processor with a sampling rate of 41,000HZ 3. What is this set up's Nyquist Frequency: Set up 2: 1. A speaker with a sampling rate of 46,050HZ 2. A microphone with a sampling rate of 12,000HZ 3. What is this set up's Nyquist Frequency: Set up 3: 1. A speaker with a sampling rate of 4,000HZ 2. A microphone with a sampling rate of 48,000HZ 3.
