Answer:

Option D 3.9

Explanation:

First, you need to use the correct equation which is the following:

COP = Q/W

Where:

Q = heat absorbed

W = work done by the pump

COP = coefficient of perfomance

We have all the data, so, all you need to do is replace in the above expression and you shoould get the correct result:

COP = 30 / 7.7

COP = 3.896

This result you can round it to 3.9. option D.

You need to put a metal rod
Lubov Fominskaja [6]
-- Put the rod into the freezer for a while.  As it cools,
it contracts (gets smaller) slightly.

-- Put the cylinder into hot hot water for a while.  As it heats,
it expands (gets bigger) slightly.

-- Bring the rod and the cylinder togther quickly, before the
rod has a chance to warm up or the cylinder has a chance
to cool off.

-- I bet it'll fit now.

-- But be careful . . . get the rod exactly where you want it as fast
as you can.  Once both pieces come back to the same temperature,
and the rod expands a little and the cylinder contracts a little, the fit
will be so tight that you'll probably never get them apart again, or even
move the rod.

What is impulse? How does this relate to momentum?
lawyer [7]
Impulse is a force acting briefly on a body and producing a finite change of momentum.
This relates to momentum because impulse is a change in momentum. Impulse = momentum. Since force is a vector quantity, impulse is also a vector in the same direction. Impulse applied to an object produces equivalent vector change in its linear momentum, also in the same direction. m•(triangle)v
