A new implantable drug delivery device is being developed in your lab. The device prototype is a very thin strip (0.1mm × 1mm × 15mm) of polymer coated on both sides with 22 milligrams of solid drug particles. To test the drug delivery profile, you "implant the device by suspending it in a homogenous model fluid that has following properties: viscosity = 0.0018 Pa.s, density = 1.32 g cm^-3, temperature = 37°C. The diffusivity of the drug is estimated to be 2.113×10^-6 cm^2/S. 1. Determine how far the drug would penetrate into the fluid in 2.2 hours.
