A heat pump is to be used for heating a house in winter. The house is to be maintained at 70°F at all times. When the temperatur
Anna35 [415]

Answer:

\dot{W_{H} } = 4244.48 Btu/h

Explanation:

Temperature of the house, T_{H} = 70^{0} F

Convert to rankine, T_{H} = 70^{0}+ 460 = 530 R

Heat is extracted at 40°F i.e T_{L} = 40^{0}F  = 40 + 460 = 500 R

Calculate the coefficient of performance of the heat pump, COP

COP = \frac{T_{H} }{T_{H} - T_{L}  } \\COP = \frac{530 }{530 - 500  }\\ COP = \frac{530}{30} \\COP = 17.67

The minimum power required to run the heat pump is given by the formula:

\dot{W_{H} } = \frac{\dot{Q_{H} }}{COP} \\...............(*)

Where the heat losses from the house, \dot{Q_{H} } = 75,000 Btu/h

Substituting these values into * above

\dot{W_{H} } = \frac{75000}{17.67} \\ \dot{W_{H} } = 4244.48 Btu/h

in the primitive yo-yo apparatus (figure 1), you replace the solid cylinder with a hollow cylinder of mass m , outer radius r ,
kirza4 [7]

The magnitude of the downward acceleration of the hollow cylinder is 6m/s^2.

Z = I α

T.R =1/2 M ( R^{2} + (R/2)^{2} )α

T.R = 1/2M 5R^{2}/4 α

T = 5Ma/8

Mg - T = Ma

Mg -  5Ma/8 =  Ma

Mg= 5Ma/8 +  Ma = 13Ma / 8

acceleration = 8g/13 = 6 m/s^2

The rate at which an object's velocity with respect to time changes is called its acceleration. The direction of the net force imposed on an item determines its acceleration in relation to that force. According to Newton's Second Law, the magnitude of an object's acceleration is the result of two factors working together

The size of the net balance of all external forces acting on that item is directly proportional to the magnitude of this net resultant force; the magnitude of that object's mass, depending on the materials from which it is built, is inversely related to its mass.

zavuch27 [327]

Answer:

Max height= 36000 meters

Total Time = 120 seconds

Explanation:

0 = U - at

U = at

U= 20*60

U= 1200 m/s

MAX altitude would be

(U²Sin²tita)/2g

Max height= 1200² *( SIN90)²/(2*20)

Time of FLIGHT

2 * 1200/20

2400/20

120 sec onds
