When a man returns to his well-sealed house on a summer day, he finds that the house is at 35°C. He turns on the air conditioner

, which cools the entire house to 20°C in 38 min. If the COP of the air-conditioning system is 2.8, determine the power drawn by the air conditioner. Assume the entire mass within the house is equivalent to 800 kg of air for which cv = 0.72 kJ/kg·°C and cp = 1.0 kJ/kg·°C

Answer:

1353.38 Watt

Explanation:

T₁ = Initial temperature of the house = 35°C

T₂ = Final temperature of the house = 20°C

Δt = Time taken to cool the house = 38 min = 38×60 = 2280 s

m = mass of air in the house = 800 kg

Cv = Specific heat at constant volume = 0.72 kJ/kgK

Cp = Specific heat at constant pressure = 1.0 kJ/kgK

Heat removed

q = mCvΔT

⇒q = 800×720×(35-20)

⇒q = 8640000 J

Average rate of hear removal

Q=\frac{q}{\Delta t}\\\Rightarrow Q=\frac{8640000}{2280}\\\Rightarrow Q=3789.47\ W

COP=\frac{Q}{W}\\\Rightarrow W=\frac{Q}{COP}\\\Rightarrow W=\frac{3789.47}{2.8}\\\Rightarrow W=1353.38\ W

∴ Power drawn by the air conditioner is 1353.38 Watt

Answer:

 W_in = 1.353 KW

Explanation:

Given:

- Initial temperature of the house T_1 = 35°C

- Final temperature of the house T_2 = 20°C

- Time taken to cool the house dt = 38 min = 38×60 = 2280 s

- mass of air in the house m = 800 kg

- Specific heat at constant volume c_v = 0.72 kJ/kgK

- Specific heat at constant pressure c_p = 1.0 kJ/kgK

Find:

- Determine the power drawn by the air conditioner.

Solution:

- We will first compute the rate of heat removal from the room, we will use c_v due to a constant volume process, as follows:

                                 Q_l = m*c_v*dT/dt

- In put values given:

                                 Q_l = 800*0.72*(35-20) / 2280

                                 Q_l = 3.7894 KW

- The relationship between the heat rejection and the COP of an air conditioner is given as:

                                 COP = Q_l / W_in

                                 W_in = Q_l / COP

                                 W_in = 3.7894 / 2.8

                                 W_in = 1.353 KW

- Hence the amount of power required for this process is 1.353 KW

7. You start to walk toward the east towards home at a constant speed of 4 km/hr. At the same time, Someone else leaves your hom
amm1812

A) position time graph for both is shown

here one of the graph is of lesser slope which means it is moving with less speed while other have larger slope which shows larger speed

At one point they intersects which is the point where they both will meet

B) Let the two will meet after time "t"

now we can say that

if they both will meet after time "t"

then the total distance moved by you and other person will be same as the distance between you and home

so it is given as

v_1t + v_2t = d

4*t + 28*t = 3.2 km

t = \frac{3.2}{32} = 0.1 hr

so they will meet after t = 6 min

so from position time graph we can see that two will meet after t = 6 min where at this position two graphs will intersect

What happens when a substance undergoes a physical change
zysi [14]

Physical changes are those which do not affect the chemical properties of a substance. For example, when a paper is cut, the two pieces obtained are still paper. The chemical properties have not changed. Only, physically when one piece is cut to two. A chemical change occurs when the chemical properties change and a new substance with different chemical properties is obtained. For example, when the paper is burnt, it turns to ashes. Hence, this is a chemical change.

When a substance undergoes a physical change, the physical properties of the substance changes like the state (solid to liquid during melting), shape, size, volume etc. Many physical changes are reversible whereas, in general many chemical changes are irreversible.

In which of the following cases will the normal force on a box be the greatest? A. When the box is placed in a stationary elevat
Butoxors [25]

Answer:

 D. When the box is placed in an elevator accelerating upward

Explanation:

Looking at the answer choices, we know that we want to find out how the normal force varies with the motion of the box. In all cases listed in the answer choices, there are two forces acting on the box: the normal force and the force of gravity. These two act in opposite directions: the normal force, N, in the upward direction and gravity, mg, in the downward direction. Taking the upward direction to be positive, we can express the net force on the box as N - mg.

From Newton's Second Law, this is also equal to ma, where a is the acceleration of the box (again with the upward direction being positive). For answer choices (A) and (B), the net acceleration of the box is zero, so N = mg. We can see how the acceleration of the elevator (and, hence, of the box) affects the normal force. The larger the acceleration (in the positive, i.e., upward, direction), the larger the normal force is to preserve the equality: N - mg = ma, N = ma+ mg. Answer choice (D), in which the elevator is accelerating upward, results in the greatest normal force, since in that case the magnitude of the normal force is greater than gravity by the amount ma.
