Suppose two neutron stars or two black holes are closely orbiting one another. what do scientists predict will eventually happen to them, and why? suppose two neutron stars or two black holes are closely orbiting one another. what do scientists predict will eventually happen to them, and why?
a. their orbits will spiral inward until the two objects merge because of energy lost through gravitational waves.
b. their orbits will gradually grow larger because of the centrifugal force involved as they circle around each other.
c. the orbits would remain stable unless there were a third object orbiting along with them.
d. their orbits will spiral inward as a result of friction with the surrounding gas until all the gas clears, after which their orbits will remain stable.

Beryl states that insulation with the smallest possible thermal conductivity is best to keep a house warm in winter, but worst for keeping a house cool in summer. sapphire insists the reverse is true: low thermal conductivity is good in the summer, but bad in the winter. which one, if either is correct? a. beryl, because low thermal conductivity results in low heat transfer. b. beryl, because low thermal conductivity results in high heat transfer. d. sapphire, because low thermal conductivity results in high heat transfer. e. neither, because low heat transfer is desirable both in summer and in winter.

8.29 two streams containing pyridine and acetic acid at 25°c are mixed and fed into a heat exchanger. due to the heat-of-mixing effect, it is desired to reduce the temperature after mixing to 25°c using a stream of chilled ethylene glycol as indicated in the diagram. calculate the mass flow rate of ethylene glycol needed. the heat capacity of ethylene glycol at these conditions is approximately 2.8 kj/(kg k), and the enthalpy change of mixing (δmixh) is given below.
