Answer: No, the air conditioner is not a refrigerator

Explanation:

First, We need to make a difference between refrigerant and refrigerator

Refrigerator is a compartment used to kept cool and store the food and drink.

Refrigerant: A substance used for the refrigeration

Refrigeration: It is the process to keep a material cold, generally food and drink

Then: The air conditioner is a refrigerant and the air conditioner unit is a refrigerator

<u>Explanation:</u>

5 Horsepower for 30 mins,

(5)(745.7) = 3.7285 KW power delivered

General Efficiency of IC engine = 20%

Power required = $\frac{3 \cdot 7285}{0 \cdot 2}=18 \cdot 6425 kw$

Energy required per week,

=P × Time = 18.64 × 60 × 30 = 33.5565 MJ

Lawn area = (30) (20) = 600 $m^{2}$

let sunlight hours be 8 hours

Hence, solar power input on lawn,

=5.62×3600 = 20232 kJ/ $m^{2}$ /day

energy input in lawn = (600) (20232) (7)

= 84974.4 mJ/week

Chemical efficiency by photosynthesis = 4%

Chemical content in grass = (84974.4) (0.04)

= 3398.97 mJ

Mass of the clippers $=(30)(20)(1 \cdot 096)^{2}(667)$

$=478632 \cdot 33$ pounds

Removing water content,

dried grass clippings $$=95726.46$ pound$

= 11533.25 gallons

Trash cans repaired

$=\frac{11533}{50} =230.66\\=231 cans$

By burning the gas, total energy input = 3398.97 MJ × 0.2

= 679.794 MJ

Efficiency of steeling engine = 20%

Energy output by engine = 679.794 ×0.2

= 135.96 mJ

Energy required by mover = 33.5565 mJ

Hence, Energy (output) ⇒ energy required

Hunter-Best [27]

Answer:

b. equal to the specific entropy of the gas at the inlet.

Explanation:

Isentropic process is the process in which the entropy of the system remains unchanged. The word isentropic is formed from the combination of the prefix "iso" which means "equal" and the word entropy.

If a process is completely reversible, without the need to provide energy in the form of heat, then the process is isentropic.

Vaselesa [24]

Answer:

hello some parts of your question is missing attached below is the missing part ( the required fig and table )

answer : The solar collector surface area = 7133 m^2

Explanation:

Given data :

Rate of energy input to the collectors from solar radiation = 0.3 kW/m^2

percentage of solar power absorbed by refrigerant = 60%

Determine the solar collector surface area

The solar collector surface area = 7133 m^2

attached below is a detailed solution of the problem

vertical gate in an irrigation canal holds back 12.2 m of water. Find the average force on the gate if its width is 3.60 m. Repo

DanielleElmas [232]

Answer:

The right solution is "2625 kN".

Explanation:

According to the question,

The average pressure will be:

= $density\times g\times \frac{h}{2}$

By putting values, we get

= $1000\times 9.8\times \frac{12.2}{2}$

= $1000\times 9.8\times 6.1$

= $59780$

hence,

The average force will be:

= $Pressure\times Area$

= $59780\times 3.6\times 12.2$

= $2625537 \ N$

Or,

= $2625 \ kN$
