Methylene chloride is a common ingredient of paint removers. Besides being an irritant, it also may be absorbed through skin. When using this paint remover, protective gloves should be worn. If butyl rubber gloves (0.04 cm thick) are used, what is the diffusive flux of methylene chloride through the glove? Diffusion coefficient in butyl rubber D = 110 x 10-8 cm²/s. Concentrations on the outside and inside surfaces of the glove are C₁ = 0.44 g/cm³, C₂ = 0.02 g/cm³. wing ve the 12arrow_forwardA garden hose has an inner radius of 1.3 cm, is connected to a spray nozzle (radius: 0.5 cm).

- Your fingers hold water in a straw. You insert a straw of length L into aa tall glass of your favorite beverage. You place your finger over the top of the straw so that no air can get in or out., and then lift the straw from the liquid. You find that the straw retains the liquid such that the distance from the bottom of your finger to the top of the liquid is h. Does the air in the space between your finger and the top of the liquid have a pressure P that is (a) greater than, (b) equal to, or (c) less than, the atmospheric pressure P A outside the straw?arrow_forward57. A room has a volume of 120 m³. An air-conditioning system is to replace the air in this room every twenty minutes, using ducts that have a square cross section. Assuming that air can be treated as an incompress- ible fluid, find the length of a side of the square if the air speed within the ducts is (a) 3.0 m/s and (b) 5.0 m/s.arrow_forwardThe 30-cm-long left coronary artery is 4.6 mm in diameter.

The drawing shows a gas flowing at speed v2 through a horizontal section of pipe whose cross-sectional area is A2 = 0.0937 m2. The gas has a density of ρ = 1.30 kg/m3. The Venturi meter has a cross-sectional area of A1 = 0.0234 m2 and has been substituted for a section of the larger pipe. The pressure difference between the two sections is P2 - P1 = 149 Pa. Find (a) the speed v2 of the gas in the larger original pipe and (b) the volume flow rate Q of the gas. I posted it just now and recieved the wrong answers so i'm asking again.
