Ethylene glycol, the primary ingredient in antifreeze, has the chemical formula C2H6O2. The radiator fluid used in most cars is

a half-and-half mixture of water and antifreeze. Part A What is the freezing point of radiator fluid that is 50% antifreeze by mass? Kf for water is 1.86 ∘C/m.

Answer:

-30 °C

Explanation:

First, we have to calculate the molality (m) of the solution. If the solution is 50% C₂H₆O₂ by mass. It means that in 100 g of solution, the are 50 g of solute (C₂H₆O₂) and 50 g of solvent (water).

The molar mass of C₂H₆O₂ is 62.07 g/mol. The moles of solute are:

50 g × (1 mol / 62.07 g) = 0.81 mol

The mass of the solvent is 50 g = 0.050 kg.

The molality is:

m = 0.81 mol / 0.050 kg = 16 m

The freezing-point depression (ΔT) can be calculated using the following expression.

ΔT = Kf × m = (1.86 °C/m) × 16 m = 30 °C

where,

Kf: freezing-point constant

The normal freezing point for water is 0°C. The freezing point of the radiator fluid is:

0°C - 30°C = -30 °C

A boat is traveling with a velocity of 18 meters/second relative to water and the river is flowing at a velocity of 2.5 meters/s
ddd [48]
Vt = Vboat - Vriver 
Vt = 18 - 2.5 = 15.5 m/s 

If the boat's direction is the same as the water, you sum the velocities of the river and the boat .

If the acceleration due to gravity at the surface of planet x is double the value of earth's, how does planet x's mass compare t
love history [14]
There is not enough information given to answer with. The force of gravity at the planet's surface depends on the planet's radius as well as its mass. The planet could have exactly the same mass as Earth has. But if it's radius is only 71% of Earth's radius, then gravity on its surface will be twice as strong as gravity on Earth.

A rocket fires two engines simultaneously. One produces a thrust of 725Ndirectly forward while the other gives a 513N thrust at
faust18 [17]

The magnitude of the resultant force, F = 1,190.3 acting at a direction X = 13.35°.

<h3>What is the resultant force the two engines exert on the rocket?</h3>

The resultant force on the rocket is calculated thus:

The 513N thrust is resolved into vertical and horizontal components;

Horizontal component: 513N cos(32.4°) = 433.14 N

Vertical component: 513N sin(32.4°) = 274.88 N

Total forward force on the rocket = 725 N + 433.14 N = 1,158.14 N

Total force at right angles:

0 + 274.88 N = 274.88 N

The resultant force (F) is then given as follows:

F² = a² + b²

F² = (1158.14 N)² + (274.88 N)²

F = √1,416,847.27

F = 1,190.3

To find the direction:

tan X 274.88 N / 1,158.14 N

X = tan⁻¹ 0.237346089419241

X = 13.35°

Therefore, the magnitude of the resultant force, F = 1,190.3 acting at a direction X = 13.35°.

In conclusion, the resultant force is obtained by resolving the forces into vertical and horizontal components.
