A 2.4-m high 200-m2 house is maintained at 22°C by an air-conditioning system whose COP, is 3.2. It is estimated that the kitch

en, bath, and other ventilating fans of the house discharge a houseful of conditioned air once every hour. If the average outdoor temperature is 32°C, the density of air is 1.20 kg/m3, and the unit cost of electricity is $0.10/kWh, the amount of money "vented out" by the fans in 10 hours is
(a) $0.50
(b) $1.60
(c) $5.00
(d) $11.00
(e) $16.00

Answer:

The amount that is "vented" out by "the fans" is <u>$0.50</u> for 10 hours.

Option: a

<u>Explanation</u>:

"Energy discharged by air in every hour" can be determined by,

\mathrm{Q}=\mathrm{m}_{\mathrm{air}} \mathrm{C}_{\mathrm{p}} \Delta \mathrm{T}

Q = heat energy (Joules, J)  

m = mass of a substance (kg)  

c = specific heat (units J/kg∙K)  

\mathrm{m}_{\mathrm{air}}=\rho \mathrm{v}

\text { Density of air } \rho=1.20 \mathrm{kg} / \mathrm{m}^{3}

\text { Density of air } \rho=1.20 \times 200 \times 2.4

\text { Density of air } \rho=576 \mathrm{kg}

∆T = 10 hours

\text { Specific Heat Capacities of Air. The nominal values used for air at } 300 \mathrm{K} \text { are } \mathrm{C_P}=1.00 \mathrm{kJ} / \mathrm{kg} . \mathrm{K}

Q = 576 × 1.00 × 10

Q = 5760 kJ/hours

W = 1.6 kwh

We know that, “Coefficient of performance” (COP)

\mathrm{Cop}=\frac{Q}{w}

\mathrm{W}=\frac{Q}{\mathrm{cop}}

Given that, COP = 3.2

\mathrm{W}=\frac{1.6}{3.2}

W = 0.5 kwh

The unit cost of electricity is $0.10/kWh

The unit cost of electricity is $0.10/kWh

Unit electricity cost for 10 hours = 0.5 × 10 × 0.1$

Unit electricity cost for 10 hours = $0.5

The amount that is "vented out" by "the fans" is $0.50 for 10 hours.

Una caja de 5.0kg de masa se acelera desde el reposo a través del piso mediante una fuerza a una tasa de 2.0 /s2 durante 7.0s en
Nady [450]

Responder:

<h2>490 julios </h2>

Explicación:

Se dice que el trabajo se realiza cuando una fuerza aplicada a un objeto hace que el objeto se mueva a través de una distancia. El trabajo realizado por un cuerpo se expresa mediante la fórmula;

Workdone = Fuerza * Distancia

Como Fuerza = masa * aceleración,

Workdone = masa * aceleración * distancia

Masa dada = 5.0kg, aceleración = 2.0m / s² d =?

Para obtener d, usaremos una de las leyes del movimiento,

d = ut + 1 / 2at²

u = 0 (ya que el cuerpo acelera desde el reposo) yt = 7.0s

d = 0 + 1/2 (2) (7) ²

d = 49m

Workdone = 5 * 2 * 49

Workdone = 490 Julios
