Questiоn 5 (15 pоints) Avrаmi equаtiоn understаnding.Consider two-dimensional (2D) growth of an alloy system, its kinetics obey Avrami equation.The nuclei have a 2D triangular shape with height of h (indicated by white dotted line shownbelow). consider h= vt, and the triangle expand by dh (top and bottom) at the time of dt. Usingthe derivation process we learned in class, identify the parameter n in Avrami equation for this2D growth. Show the derivation process.(hint: only consider the infinitesimal area change for dx(t), you will need to figure out each sidelength using h)
