An astronaut leaves the International Space Station (ISS) on a tethered line. Although ISS and Earth exert gravitational force on the astronaut, why does she appear to be weightless?
A) Earth only exerts gravitational force on objects at its surface.
B) The mass of the astronaut is insufficient to be affected by gravity.
C) Earth and ISS cancel each other's gravitational force on the astronaut.
D) The distance from Earth and mass of ISS exert negligible gravitational force on the astronaut.

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.
