Read the following scenario and decide if it is a hypothesis, theory or law. John is an amateur astronomer who is in his second semester of high school physics.
Accordingly, he knows that objects in motion remain in motion and move at constant
velocity in a straight line until some force acts on them. John observes that all of the
planets in this solar system orbit the sun in approximately circular orbits. In addition,
the farther a planet is from the sun, the longer it takes for that planet to complete one
orbit. John discusses his observations with like-minded friends, who also observe and
verify what John has seen. Based on these consistent observations from many different
people, John concludes that there is gravity in outer space. Is this conclusion a
hypothesis, theory or law?

1. the materials manager for a billiard ball maker must periodically place orders for resin, one of the raw materials used in producing billiard balls. she knows that manufacturing uses resin at a rate of 50 kilograms each day, and that it costs $.04 per day to carry a kilogram of resin in inventory. she also knows that the order costs for resin are $100 per order, and that the lead time for delivery is four (4) days.2. at what point should resin be reordered? a. 0 kilograms remainingb. 50 kilograms remainingc. 200 kilograms remainingd. 400 kilograms remaininge. 500 kilograms remaining3. if order size was 1,000 kilograms of resin, what would be the length of an order cycle? a. 0.05 daysb. 4 daysc. 16 daysd. 20 dayse. 50 days4. if the order size was 1,000 kilograms of resin, what would be the average inventory level? a. 50 kilogramsb. 200 kilogramsc. 500 kilogramsd. 800 kilogramse. 1,000 kilograms5. if the order size was 1,000 kilograms of resin, what would be the daily total inventory costs, excluding the cost of the resin? a. $5b. $10c. $20d. $25e. $40

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.
