One of your colleagues has designed a new transdermal patch to deliver insulin through the skin to diabetic patients in a controlled way, eliminating the need for painful injections. She hascollected the following data on the mass flux of insulin being delivered through the patch (and skin) as a function of time:
| Flux, Mg/cm2/h | Time, h | Flux, Mg/cm2/h | Time, h |

- The processing of raw coal involves “washing,” in which coal ash (nonorganic, incombustible material) is removed. The article “Quantifying Sampling Precision for Coal Ash Using Gy’s Discrete Model of the Fundamental Error” (Journal of Coal Quality, 1989:33–39) provides data relating the percentage of ash to the volume of a coal particle. The average percentage of ash for six volumes of coal particles was measured. The data are as follows: Volume (cm3) 0.01 0.06 0.58 2.24 15.55 276.02 Percent ash 3.32 4.05 5.69 7.06 8.17 9.36 Using the most appropriate model, predict the percent ash for particles with a volume of 48 cm3.

- True or False High-tech research in Singapore includes the elusive but all-consuming invention that drove Nicola Tesla - Wireless Power Transfer.arrow_forwardTo measure the density of a stone, a digital scale and a beaker cup filled with water are used. The balance is used to measure the mass of the stone, while the beaker is used to measure the volume of the stone. It is known that the digital balance has a resolution of 0.1 g and that the beaker cup has a resolution of 5 ml. Repeated mass measurements return the following values: 250.0 g; 249.9 g; 250.3 g; 249.6g; 250.1 g; 249.7g; 250.4 g; 250.0 g; 248.8 g; 250.2 g The volume is measured only once. Placing the stone in the beaker, a volume of displaced water equal to 50 ml is measured. Using a k=2.5, check if the density of the stone is compatible or out of line with the value ρ = (4910 ± 65) kg.m-3 (a) none of the above (b) the values are compatible (c) missing data to perform the compatibility test (d) the values are discrepantarrow_forwardAn unmanned submarine is equipped with temperature and depth measuring instruments and has radio equipment that can transmit the output readings of these instruments back to the surface. The submarine is initially floating on the surface of the sea with the instrument output readings in steady state.
