What are geothermal heat pumps used for?

Heat pumps are also known as refrigeration units for heating and cooling homes by taking heat from air outside in the winter time and then reversed to take heat out of the inside of a home in the summertime. The Geothermal heat pumps take heat from the ground by way of buried pipes deep in ground with chemicals such as water and glycol or similar and transfers that heat into homes in the winter time.

A capacitor consists of two parallel plates, each with an area of 17.0 cm2 , separated by a distance of 0.150 cm . The material

Llana [10]

Answer:

a) $C = 40.138\,pF$ , b) $q = 16.056\,nC$ , c) $U = 3.212\,\mu J$

Explanation:

a) The capacitance of two parallel plates capacitor with dielectric is given by the following expression:

$C = K\cdot \epsilon_{o}\cdot \frac{A}{d}$

Where:

$K$ - Dielectric constant.

$\epsilon_{o}$ - Vaccum permitivity.

$A$ - Plate area.

$d$ - Distance between plates.

Hence, the capacitance of the system is:

$C = (4.00)\cdot (8.854\times 10^{-12}\,\frac{F}{m} )\cdot \left(\frac{17\times 10^{-4}\,m^{2}}{0.150\times 10^{-2}\,m}\right)$

$C = 4.014\cdot 10^{-11}\,F$

$C = 40.138\,pF$

b) The charge can be found by using the definition of capacitance:

$q = C\cdot V_{batt}$

$q = (4.014\times 10^{-11}\,F)\cdot (400\,V)$

$q = 1.606\times 10^{-8}\,C$

$q = 16.056\,nC$

c) The energy stored in the charged capacitor is:

$U=\frac{1}{2}\cdot Q\cdot V_{batt}$

$U=\frac{1}{2}\cdot (1.606\times 10^{-8}\,C)\cdot (400\,V)$

$U = 3.212\times 10^{-6}\,J$

$U = 3.212\,\mu J$
