A completely reversible heat pump produces heat ata rate of 300 kW to warm a house maintained at 24°C. Theexterior air, which is

at 7°C, serves as the source. Calculate the rate of entropy change of the two reservoirs and determine if this heat pump satisfies the second law according to the increase of entropy principle.

Answer:

Change in entropy S = 0.061

Second law of thermodynamics is satisfied since there is an increase in entropy

Explanation:

Heat Q = 300 kW

T2 = 24°C = 297 K

T1 = 7°C = 280 K

Change in entropy =

S = Q(1/T1 - 1/T2)

= 300(1/280 - 1/297) = 0.061

There is a positive increase in entropy so the second law is satisfied.

What are difference between conic sectional and solids?
Murljashka [212]

Answer:

Conic Sections

a conic section is a curve which is obtained when a surface performs an intersection with a plane. The types of conic sections include hyperbola, parabola and ellipse. A circle can also be considered as a conic section.

Conic Solids on the other hand are the set of points on any segment between a region and a point which is not present in the plane of the base. They are solids with one base.

According to the decreasing order of toughness. list the following materials (note: the steels are assumed to have no cold work
fiasKO [112]

Answer:

1090 Steel >1040 Steel > Pure aluminium >Diamond.

Explanation:

Toughness:

  Toughness can be define as the are of load -deflection diagram up to fracture point.

Modulus of toughness can be defines as the area of stress-strain diagram up to fracture point.Modulus of toughness is the property of material.

So the decreasing order of toughness can be given as follows

1090 Steel >1040 Steel > Pure aluminium >Diamond.
