A thermoelectric refrigerator is powered by a 16-V power supply that draws 2.9 A of current. If the refrigerator cools down 3.1

kg of water from 25 °C to 11 °C in 12 hours, what is the average COP of the refrigerator? Take the specific heat of water as 4180 J/kg.K. (3 decimal digits)

Answer:

COP = 0.090

Explanation:

The general formula for COP is:

COP = Desired Output/Required Input

Here,

Desired Output = Heat removed from water while cooling

Desired Output = (Specific Heat of Water)(Mass of Water)(Change in Temperature)/Time

Desired Output = [(4180 J/kg.k)(3.1 kg)(25 - 11)k]/[(12 hr)(3600 sec/hr)]

Desired Output = 4.199 W

And the required input can be given as electrical power:

Required Input = Electrical Power = (Current)(Voltage)

Required Input = (2.9 A)(16 V) = 46.4 W

Therefore:

COP = 4.199 W/46.4 W

<u>COP = 0.090</u>

The difference between an initial condition and a boundary condition for conduction in a solid is:___________
leva [86]

Answer:

c. an initial condition specifies the temperature at the start of the problem and a boundary condition provides information about temperatures on the boundaries.

Explanation:

Conduction refers to the transfer of thermal energy or electric charge as a result of the movement of particles. When the conduction relates to electric charge, it is known as electrical conduction while when it relates to thermal energy, it is known as heat conduction.

In the process of heat conduction, thermal energy is usually transferred from fast moving particles to slow moving particles during the collision of these particles. Also, thermal energy is typically transferred between objects that has different degrees of temperature and materials (particles) that are directly in contact with each other but differ in their ability to accept or give up electrons.

Any material or object that allow the conduction (transfer) of electric charge or thermal energy is generally referred to as a conductor. Conductors include metal, steel, aluminum, copper, frying pan, pot, spoon etc.

Hence, the difference between an initial condition and a boundary condition for conduction in a solid is that an initial condition specifies the temperature at the start of the problem and a boundary condition provides information about temperatures on the boundaries.

Jet001 [13]

Answer:

John should detail his Scrum Master.

Explanation:

The Team Lead or Scrum Master coordinates the tasks of individual team members and supports the progress of the team. The Scrum Master usually receives instructions from the Product Owner and then ensures that the tasks are performed accordingly.  She also coaches the Development Team and works with the Product Owner to carry out daily development activities.  She also drives the Scrum Values and Principles, ensuring that the team members understand and practice them.

Write a iterative function that finds the n-th integer of the Fibonacci sequence. Then build a minimal program (main function) t
Natasha2012 [34]

Answer:

Codes for each of the problems are explained below

Explanation:

PROBLEM 1 IN C++:

#include<iostream>

using namespace std;

//fib function that calculate nth integer of the fibonacci sequence.

void fib(int n){

  // l and r inital fibonacci values for n=1 and n=2;

  int l=1,r=1,c;

 

  //if n==1 or n==2 then print 1.

  if(n==1 || n==2){

      cout << 1;

      return;

  }

  //for loop runs n-2 times and calculates nth integer of fibonacci sequence.

  for(int i=0;i<n-2;i++){

      c=l+r;

      l=r;

      r=c;

      cout << "(" << i << "," << c << ") ";

  }

  //prints nth integer of the fibonacci sequence stored in c.

  cout << "\n" << c;

}

int main(){

  int n; //declared variable n

  cin >> n; //inputs n to find nth integer of the fibonacci sequence.

  fib(n);//calls function fib to calculate and print fibonacci number.

}

PROBLEM 2 IN PYTHON:

def fib(n):

   print("fib({})".format(n), end=' ')

   if n <= 1:

       return n

   else:

       return fib(n - 1) + fib(n - 2)

if __name__ == '__main__':

   n = int(input())

   result = fib(n)

   print()

   print(result)
