A sheet of steel 4.4 mm thick has nitrogen atmospheres on both sides at 1200°C and is permitted to achieve a steady-state diffusion condition. The diffusion coefficient for nitrogen in steel at this temperature is 5.9 × 10^(-11) m^2/s, and the diffusion flux is found to be 4.7 × 10^(-7) kg/m^2.s. Also, it is known that the concentration of nitrogen in the steel at the high-pressure surface is 4.5 kg/m^3.

How far into the sheet from this high-pressure side will the concentration be 2.7 kg/m^3? Assume a linear concentration profile.
