PROBLEM 2 (20 POINTS) A number of studies have been conducted on the diffusion of substances such as water and oxygen in plastics with particular relevance to the food packaging industry. It turns out that at 30°C, the diffusivity of water in polyvinylidene chloride (PVDC) (a.k.a. Saran™) is 9.1×108 cm²/s.1 Imagine you cover a glass with 100 mL (5.55 mol) of water with a 10 μm thick PVDC film as depicted to the right. Assuming that the water concentration on the lower surface (inside the glass) of the PVDC is 1.7 mol/m³ (based on the equilibrium vapor pressure of 4.25 kPa for water at 30°C) and "dry air" conditions (no water, a.k.a. 0% humidity) are maintained outside the glass, determine how long (in years!!!) it will take for the water to completely evaporate from the glass assuming it can only escape the glass by diffusion through the PVDC film and that the temperature is constant at 30°C. The diameter at the top of the glass is 10 cm.

A student working 3.0m away from you in a chemistry lab performs an experiment which creates a bad odor. It takes a while for the smell to get to you (air currents negligible). You are able to move 2.0m further away from the source but the smell catches up with you in another 60 seconds. What is the diffusion coefficient in the air for the molecules you smell?

Draw a stress-strain curve for a low carbon steel and explain important points and regions in detail. What fracture behavior does this steel exhibit?
A polymer has creep behaviour that can be represented as a power law equation: e = 0 (Jo + Jit") where J, is 0.5 GPa1, J1 is 0.45 GPa's 0.3 and n is 0.3 (with t in seconds). A component of this material has the following applied stress history: There is no stress before t = 0 A positive (tensile) stress of 8 MPa is applied from t = 0 for 4 hours From t = 4 hours to 6 hours, the stress is compressive stress of 2 MPa The stress is then removed. What will the strain in the material be at t = 9 hours? Enter your value as a number to 4 decimal places. You have a 2% error margin with this.

The major difference between solid and fluid is the molecules are well-packed in solid but free to move in fluid. As a consequence of such difference, which of the following statements are correct? (i) Stress is proportional to strain in solid but stress is proportional to rate of strain in fluid. (ii) Fluid can be used as a lubricating film to separate 2 solid surfaces from direct contact to reduce friction.
