A copper-nickel alloy that solidifies with a secondary dendrite arm spacing (SDAS) of 0.001 cm requires 15

Question:

A copper-nickel alloy that solidifies with a secondary dendrite arm spacing (SDAS) of 0.001 cm requires 15 hours of homogenization heat treatment at 1100°C. What is the homogenization time required for the same alloy with a SDAS of 0.01 cm and 0.0001 cm? If the diffusion coefficient of Ni in Cu at 1100°C is 3 x 10-10 cm2/s, calculate the constant c in the homogenization time equation. What assumption is made in this calculation?
