A student buys a 5000 Btu window air conditioner for his apartment bedroom. He monitors it for one hour on a hot day and determi

nes that it operates approximately 60 percent of the time (duty cycle 5 60 percent) to keep the room at nearly constant temperature. (a) Showing all your work and using unity conversion ratios, calculate the rate of heat transfer into the bedroom through the walls, windows, etc. in units of Btu/h and in units of kW. (b) If the energy efficiency ratio (EER) of the air conditioner is 9.0 and electricity costs 7.5 cents per kilowatt-hr, calculate how much it costs (in cents) for him to run the air conditioner for one hour.

An eagle is flying horizontally at a speed of 3.80 m/s when the fish in her talons wiggles loose and falls into the lake 3.90 m
Dovator [93]

Answer:

the velocity of the fish relative to the water when it hits the water is 9.537m/s and 66.52⁰ below horizontal

Explanation:

initial veetical speed V₀y=0

Horizontal speed Vx = Vx₀= 3.80m/s

Vertical drop height= 3.90m

Let Vy = vertical speed when it got to the water downward.

g= 9.81m/s² = acceleration due to gravity

From kinematics equation of motion for vertical drop

Vy²= V₀y² +2 gh

Vy²= 0 + ( 2× 9.8 × 3.90)

Vy= √76.518

Vy=8.747457

Then we can calculate the velocity of the fish relative to the water when it hits the water using Resultant speed formula below

V= √Vy² + Vx²

V=√3.80² + 8.747457²

V=9.537m/s

The angle can also be calculated as

θ=tan⁻¹(Vy/Vx)

tan⁻¹( 8.747457/3.80)

=66.52⁰

the velocity of the fish relative to the water when it hits the water is 9.537m/s and 66.52⁰ below horizontal

A Carnot engine whose high-temperature reservoir is at 464 K has an efficiency of 25.0%. By how much should the temperature of t
nexus9112 [7]

Answer

given,

high temperature reservoir (T_c)= 464 K

efficiency  of reservoir (ε)= 25 %

temperature to decrease = ?

increase in efficiency = 42 %

now, using equation

 \epsilon = 1 - \dfrac{T_C}{T_H}

 0.25 = 1 - \dfrac{T_C}{464}

 T_C= (1 - 0.25) \times 464

 T_C= 0.75 \times 464

      T_C = 348 K

now,

if the efficiency is equal to 42$ = 0.42

 T_C= (1 - 0.42) \times 464

 T_C= 0.58 \times 464

 T_C= 269.12\ K

What determines how long it takes for the capacitor to charge?
myrzilka [38]

The time constant determines how long it takes for the capacitor to charge.

To find the answer, we have to know more about the time constant of the capacitor.

<h3>What is time constant?</h3>
  • The time it takes for a capacitor to discharge 36.8% of its charge in a discharging circuit or charge up to 63.2% of its maximum capacity in a charging circuit, given that it has no initial charge, is the time constant of a resistor-capacitor series combination.
  • The circuit's reaction to a step-up (or constant) voltage input is likewise determined by the time constant.
  • As a result, the time constant determines the circuit's cutoff frequency.

Thus, we can conclude that, the time constant determines how long it takes for the capacitor to charge.

Convert to the fractional equivalent and reduce 21.12
nignag [31]

The decimal point is placed after two digits starting from the end. For each decimal place, we can write the number divided by 100.

21.12 can be written as \frac{2112}{100}.

Divide the numerator and denominator by 2:

\frac{2112}{100}= \frac{156}{50}

The numerator and denominator can be divided by 2 again:

\frac{78}{25}

There is no other common factor between numerator and denominator other than 1. Hence, it is the reduced form.
