Answer:

option B

Explanation:

given,

heating tap water from 16° C to 50° C

at the average rate of 0.2 kg/min

the COP of this heat pump is 2.8

power output = ?

COP = \dfrac{Q_H}{W_{in}}\\W_{in} = \dfrac{Q_H}{COP}\\W_{in} = \dfrac{\dfrac{0.2}{60}\times 4.18\times (50-16)}{2.8}\\W_{in} = 0.169

the required power input is 0.169 kW or 0.17 kW

hence, the correct answer is option B

14. The maximum amount a homeowner should spend on housing is
Simora [160]

Answer:

28%

Explanation:

Although there are sources that says 30% of gross income can be spent on housing, the most reliable amount that can be spent (according to other sources) is 28%.

Take for instance, you earn $5000 monthly, the maximum that you can spend on housing is:

Max = 28\% * \$5000

Using a calculator, we have:

Max = \$1400

<em>The maximum that can be spent on a monthly gross income of $5000 is $1400</em>

To put out a class D metal fire, you must _______ the fire.
gladu [14]

To put out a class D metal fire, you must smother the fire and eliminate the oxygen element in the fire.

<h3>What is a Class D fire?</h3>

A class D fire is a type of fire that cannot be extinguished by water. This is because adding water to it reacts with other elements in the fire intensifying the fire even more.

Smothering in this context involves adding a solution like carbon dioxide (CO2) into the fire, this results in a reduction of oxygen in the atmosphere surrounding the class D fire.

By so doing, smothering the fire eliminates the oxygen element in the fire, thereby extinguishing the fire.
