Question
Sucrose is allowed to diffuse along a 8.0-cm length of tubing filled with water. The tube is 6.3 cm2 in cross-sectional area. The diffusion coefficient is equal to 5.0 ✕ 10-10 m2/s, and 8.0 ✕ 10-14 kg is transported along the tube in 12 s. What is the difference in the concentration levels of sucrose at the two ends of the tube?

- A basketball is pressurized to a gauge pressure of PG = 55 kPa when at the surface of a swimming pool. (Patm = 101 kPa). The ball is then submerged in the pool of water which has a density ρ = 1000 kg/m3. Assume the ball does not change in mass, temperature, or volume as it is submerged. Calculate the absolute pressure inside the basketball in kPa when it is at the surface. Write an equation for the pressure difference ΔP between the inside and outside of the ball when it is submerged a distance y below the surface of the water. Solve the pressure equation for the depth (in meters) at which the pressure difference between the inside and outside of the ball will become zero. At this depth the pressure inside the basketball is the same as the pressure outside the ball.arrow_forwardA chamber is filled with a gas that has a pressure of 0.250 atm and ???is connected to a mercury-filled u-tube with a width of 0.01m.
