A heat pump is a device that puts out heat. It involves pumping a lever over and over to get energy so it can work.

Answer:

Heat pump is a device which is used to maintain the system at a temperature more than the atmospheric temperature.

<em>For example</em> if you need to maintain the system at a temperature more than the room temperature<em> (say 50° C), </em>the heat has to be supply continuously by means of supplying an external work on the system. Otherwise the heat easily escapes from the system due to temperature gradient between system and surroundings.

According to the "Thermodynamic II law, the heat always transfer from high temperature body to low temperature body without aid of external energy, but the heat can also be transfer from low temperature body to high temperature body by means of some external energy.

From given figure, To maintain the system at temperature 50° C, you need to do external work, because some energy always lost to the surroundings

Alex is asked to move two boxes of books in contact with each other and resting on a rough floor. He decides to move them at the

Over [174]

Answer:

Part a)

$a= 0.32 m/s^2$

Part b)

$F_c = 3.6 N$

Part c)

$F_c = 5.5 N$

Explanation:

Part a)

As we know that the friction force on two boxes is given as

$F_f = \mu m_a g + \mu m_b g$

$F_f = 0.02(10.6 + 7)9.81$

$F_f = 3.45 N$

Now we know by Newton's II law

$F_{net} = ma$

so we have

$F_p - F_f = (m_a + m_b) a$

$9.1 - 3.45 = (10.6 + 7) a$

$a = \frac{5.65}{17.6}$

$a= 0.32 m/s^2$

Part b)

For block B we know that net force on it will push it forward with same acceleration so we have

$F_c - F_f = m_b a$

$F_c = \mu m_b g + m_b a$

$F_c = 0.02(7)(9.8) + 7(0.32)$

$F_c = 3.6 N$

Part c)

If Alex push from other side then also the acceleration will be same

So for box B we can say that Net force is given as

$F_p - F_f - F_c = m_b a$

$9.1 - 0.02(7)(9.8) - F_c = 7(0.32)$

$F_c = 9.1 - 0.02 (7)(9.8) - 7(0.32)$

$F_c = 5.5 N$
