Answer: 10.29 sec.

Explanation:

Neglecting drag and friction, and at road level , the energy developed during the time the car is accelerating, is equal to the change in kinetic energy.

If the car starts from rest, this means the following:

ΔK = 1/2 m*vf ²

As Power (by definition) is equal to Energy/Time= 75000 W= 75000 N.m/seg, in order to get time in seconds, we need to convert 100 km/h to m/sec first:

100 (Km/h)*( 1000m /1 Km)*(3600 sec/1 h)= 27,78 m/sec

Now, we calculate the change in energy:

ΔK= 1/2*2000 Kg. (27,78)² m²/sec²= 771,728 J

<h2>If P= ΔK/Δt, </h2><h2>Δt= ΔK/P= 771,728 J / 75,000 J/sec= 10.29 sec.</h2>

Write the chemical equation of the polymerization reaction to synthesize PS
marin [14]

Explanation:

Styrene is  a vinyl monomer in which there is a carbon carbon double bond.

The polymerization of the styrene, which is initiated by using a free radical which reacts with the styrene and the compound thus forms react again and again to form polystyrene (PS).

The equation is shown below as:

\begin{matrix}& C_6H_5 \\&|\\n H_2C & =CH\end{matrix}        ⇒                \begin{matrix}&C_6H_5 \\&|\\ -[-H_2C & -CH-]-_n\end{matrix}

An automotive fuel has a molar composition of 85% ethanol (C2H5OH) and 15% octane (C8H18). For complete combustion in air, deter
slava [35]

Answer:

a) 1

b) 1813.96 MJ/kmol

c) 32.43 MJ/kg ,  1980.39 MJ/Kmol

Explanation:

molar mass of  ethanol (C2H5OH) = 46 g/mol

molar mass of   octane (C8H18) = 114 g/mol

therefore the moles of ethanol and octane

ethanol =  0.85 / 46

octane = 0.15 / 114

a) determine the molar air-fuel ratio and air-fuel ratio by mass

attached below

mass of air / mass of fuel = 12.17 / 1 = 12.17

b ) Determine the lower heating value

LHV  of  ( C2H5OH) = 26.8 * 46 = 1232.8 MJ/kmol

LHV  of (C8H18). = 44.8 mj/kg * 114 kg/kmol = 5107.2 MJ/Kmol

LHV ( MJ/kmol)  for fuel mixture = 0.85 * 1232.8 + 0.15 * 5107.2 = 1813.96 MJ/kmol

c) Determine higher heating value  ( HHV )

HHV of (C2H5OH) = 29.7 * 46 = 1366.2 MJ/kmol

HHV of C8H18 = 47.9 MJ/kg * 114 = 5460.6 MJ/kmol

HHV  in MJ/kg  = 0.85 * 29.7 + 0.15 * 47.9  = 32.43 MJ/kg

HHV in  MJ /kmol  =  0.85 * 1366.2 + 0.15 * 5460.8 = 1980.39 MJ/Kmol
