Calculate the distance olive oil (a lipid) could move in a membrane in 15 seconds assuming the diffusion coefficient is 1 μm2/s. Use the equation where S is distance traveled, t is time, and D is the diffusion coefficient.S = (4Dt)^1/2

Answer :

Answer:

The answer according to the given equation is S = 0.00077 cm

Explanation:

According to this equation

S = (4Dt)^1/2

S = (4* 1^e-8 * 15)^0.5

S = 0.00077 cm

According to the Approximation equation for diffusion time

t ≅ S^2 / 2D

S = 0.00055 cm
