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:
a) 2622.903 N/m^3
b) 1.38233
c)4.878811765
Explanation:
Find the void ratio using the formula:
Here;
is specific gravity of soil solids
is unit weight of water = 998 kg/m^3
is the moisture content = 0.17
is the void ratio
is the unit weight of soil = 14.9KN/m^3
Saturation Ratio Formula:
S is saturation rate
Substitute Eq 2 into Eq 1
Specific gravity of soil solids
Saturated Unit Weight
Answer:
The power developed in HP is 2702.7hp
Explanation:
Given details.
P1 = 150 lbf/in^2,
T1 = 1400°R
P2 = 14.8 lbf/in^2,
T2 = 700°R
Mass flow rate m1 = m2 = m = 11 lb/s Q = -65000 Btu/h
Using air table to obtain the values for h1 and h2 at T1 and T2
h1 at T1 = 1400°R = 342.9 Btu/h
h2 at T2 = 700°R = 167.6 Btu/h
Using;
Q - W + m(h1) - m(h2) = 0
W = Q - m (h2 -h1)
W = (-65000 Btu/h ) - 11 lb/s (167.6 - 342.9) Btu/h
W = (-65000 Btu/h ) - (-1928.3) Btu/s
W = (-65000 Btu/h ) * {1hr/(60*60)s} - (-1928.3) Btu/s
W = -18.06Btu/s + 1928.3 Btu/s
W = 1910.24Btu/s
Note; Btu/s = 1.4148532hp
W = 2702.7hp
Answer:
80% of the people that were killed weren't wearing a safety flotation device ( in correct terminology Personal Flotation Device, or PFD )
Explanation:
Hence they drowned due to the lack of safety.
