Refrigerant-134a enters the condenser of a residential heat pump at 800 kPA and 35oC at a rate of 0.018 kg/s and leaves at 800 k

Pa as a saturated liquid. If the compressor consumes 1.2 kW of power, determine
(a) the COP of the heat pump

(b) the rate of heat absorbtion from the outside air.

Answer:

(A) COP = 2.64

(B) rate of heat absorption= 1.9637 kW

Explanation:

mass flow rate (m) = 0.018 kg/s

work input (Win) = 1.2kW

inlet pressure (P1) = 800kPa

inlet temperature (T1) = 35 degree Celsius

h1 = 271.24 KJ/Kg

outlet pressure (P2) = 800 kPa

outlet temperature (T2) = ?

entalphy (h2) = 95.48 KJ/Kg

The entalphies are gotten from tables for refrigerant 134a at the temperatures and pressures above

(A) COP = Qh ÷ Win

     where Qh  = m(h1 -h2) from the energy balance equation

     Qh = 0.018 ( 271.24 - 95.48 ) = 3.1637 kW

     COP = 3.1637 ÷ 1.2 = 2.64

(B) rate of heat absorption = Qh - Win

    = 3.1637 - 1.2 = 1.9637 kW

Wind tends to move from<br> pressure areas.<br> low, high<br> high, high<br> low, low<br> high, low
andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

high, low

Explanation:

  • Energy always flows from a higher level to a lower level.
  • It is analogous to the waterfall where waterfalls from a higher level to a lower level.
  • So in the case of the pressure of the gas, when there are any numbers of molecules in a given volume of space. The gas is said to be at high pressure.
  • When there are fewer molecules in the given volume. The gas is said to be at lower pressure.
  • Due to a large number of atoms, the high-pressure gas exerts more force on the container than the force exerted by the low-pressure gas.
  • If a hose is connected between these two containers, gas rushes from high pressure to the low pressure. Since the force exerted by the high-pressure gas is greater than that of low-pressure gas.

So, the wind tends to move from high-pressure areas to low pressure.

A trampoline spring has a force constant k = 800 N/m and is stretched exactly 17.5cm. What is the energy required to do this?
Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

the energy required for the extension is 12.25 J

Explanation:

Given;

force constant of trampoline spring, k = 800 N/m

extension of trampoline spring, x = 17.5 cm = 0.175 m

The energy required for the extension is calculated as;

E = ¹/₂kx²

E = 0.5 x 800 x 0.175²

E = 12.25 J

Therefore, the energy required for the extension is 12.25 J
