For the solidification of iron, calculate the critical radius r* and the activation free energy ΔG* if nucleation is homogeneous. Values for the latent heat of fusion and surface free energy are –1.85 × 109 J/m3 and 0.204 J/m2, respectively. Use the supercooling value ΔT = 273 K, and the melting point of iron is 1538°C.

If its history of, then b) because a) implies only present day (now)

Distance covered = speed x timethe distance traveled going against the stream = distance traveled with the stream.therefore it is the speed and the time that are the variables.as he travels the same distance both ways, speed x time is the same for each way.going upstream his speed is 4 kph; going downstream his speed is 6 kph.therefore we have two simultaneous equations: time upstream x 4 = time downstream x 6time upstream + time downstream = 60 minutestherefore we have the equation: time upstream = 6/10 hour, time downstream therefore = 4/10 hour.distance traveled at 4km/hr in 6/10 hour = 24/10 = 2.4km.check: distance traveled at 6km/hr in 4/10 hour = 24/10 = 2.4km.
