Answer:
The claim is valid.
Explanation:
Let assume that heat pump is reversible. The coefficient of performance for the heat pump is:



The claim is valid as real heat pumps have lower coefficients of performance.
Answer:
P = 4.745 kips
Explanation:
Given
ΔL = 0.01 in
E = 29000 KSI
D = 1/2 in
LAB = LAC = L = 12 in
We get the area as follows
A = π*D²/4 = π*(1/2 in)²/4 = (π/16) in²
Then we use the formula
ΔL = P*L/(A*E)
For AB:
ΔL(AB) = PAB*L/(A*E) = PAB*12 in/((π/16) in²*29*10⁶ PSI)
⇒ ΔL(AB) = (2.107*10⁻⁶ in/lbf)*PAB
For AC:
ΔL(AC) = PAC*L/(A*E) = PAC*12 in/((π/16) in²*29*10⁶ PSI)
⇒ ΔL(AC) = (2.107*10⁻⁶ in/lbf)*PAC
Now, we use the condition
ΔL = ΔL(AB)ₓ + ΔL(AC)ₓ = ΔL(AB)*Cos 30° + ΔL(AC)*Cos 30° = 0.01 in
⇒ ΔL = (2.107*10⁻⁶ in/lbf)*PAB*Cos 30°+(2.107*10⁻⁶ in/lbf)*PAC*Cos 30°= 0.01 in
Knowing that PAB*Cos 30°+PAC*Cos 30° = P
we have
(2.107*10⁻⁶ in/lbf)*P = 0.01 in
⇒ P = 4745.11 lb = 4.745 kips
The pic shown can help to understand the question.
Answer:
Q = -68.859 kJ
Explanation:
given details
mass 
initial pressure P_1 = 104 kPa
Temperature T_1 = 25 Degree C = 25+ 273 K = 298 K
final pressure P_2 = 1068 kPa
Temperature T_2 = 311 Degree C = 311+ 273 K = 584 K
we know that
molecular mass of 
R = 8.314/44 = 0.189 kJ/kg K
c_v = 0.657 kJ/kgK
from ideal gas equation
PV =mRT

Answer:
<em>No, the velocity profile does not change in the flow direction.</em>
Explanation:
In a fluid flow in a circular pipe, the boundary layer thickness increases in the direction of flow, until it reaches the center of the pipe, and fill the whole pipe. If the density, and other properties of the fluid does not change either by heating or cooling of the pipe, <em>then the velocity profile downstream becomes fully developed, and constant, and does not change in the direction of flow.</em>
