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

Which of the following is a form of pollution created when vehicle exhaust interacts with sunlight?
SVEN [57.7K]

Photochemical smog is formed when primary air pollutants interact with sunlight.

Photochemical smog is the result of the reaction between pollutants like  nitrogen oxides (NO), sunlight and volatile organic compound (VOC) in the atmosphere. The sources of NO are car exhaust, coal power plants, factory emissions, etc. This type of smog is also known by the name Los Angeles smog.

Air pollutants are the particles present dissolved in the air, which when inhaled by the organisms can cause serious health issues. These pollutants are :ozone, particulate matter, gaseous oxides, etc. These pollutants majorly affect the respiratory system of the humans.

Therefore, photochemical smog is a form of pollution created when vehicle exhaust interacts with sunlight.

A quantity found by multiplying the force by the distance moved
Andrej [43]
The quantity that is calculated from the product of the force and the distance traveled due to the force is called work.  It has SI units of Joules (J) which is equivalent to Newton-meter (N-m). It is the energy that happens when an object is being moved by an external force.

Which illustration represent the substance at a higher temperature? Explain.
mamaluj [8]

The addition of heat energy to a system always causes the temperature of that system to increase. This is always true because you are adding heat of a substance to increase  its temperature. For example, you are going to drink a cup of coffee. And you wanted it hot to boost your attention. So you have to use hot water. In order for your water to become hot or warm, you need boil it in a kettle. Note that you are going to use an electric stove. The electric stove gets it energy from the source giving it a hotter temperature to the water in the kettle. You are applying heat energy to warm the water. So, the statement is true.
