195 dots are placed in a square that is 4 x 4 units.

This configuration creates an issue where at least two points need to be very close to one another, no farther than a distance of D. What is the minimum distance D? (Hint: Consider using pigeonhole principle to solve min distance)

Square sheet of Naphthalene (57gm) and dimension of (10cm X 10cm) is placed on the floor of a room at temperature (25oC) and pressure (1 bar). Naphthalene starts to sublimate (change from solid to vapor). The concentration of naphthalene at the surface of the sheet is 1.25x10-4 mole fraction, and at 1mm away from the sheet is 1x10-6 mole fraction. If the diffusion coefficient of naphthalene is 5.9x10-2 cm2/sec and the molecular weight of naphthalene is 128 g/mol, a- Calculate...

Create a square, almost symmetric 4 X 4 matrix B with values 1, 2, 3 and 4 on the diagonal. Let values off diagonal be between 0.01 and 0.2. Almost symmetric matrix is not a scientific term. It just means that most of the off diagonal terms on transpose positions are close in value: 1. Determine matrix BINV which is an inverse of matrix B; 2. Demonstrate that the matrix multiplied by its inverse produces a unit matrix. Unit matrix...
