A large heat pump should upgrade 5 MW of heat at 85°C to be delivered as heat at 150°C. Suppose the actual heat pump has a COP o

f 2.5. How much power is required to drive the unit? For the same COP, how high a high temperature would a Carnot heat pump have, assuming the same low T?

Answer:

W=2 MW

Explanation:

Given that

COP= 2.5

Heat extracted from 85°C  

Qa= 5 MW

Lets heat supplied at 150°C   = Qr

The power input to heat pump = W

From first law of thermodynamics

Qr= Qa+ W

We know that COP of heat pump given as

COP=\dfrac{Qr}{W}

2.5=\dfrac{5}{W}

2.5=\dfrac{5}{W}

W=2 MW

For Carnot heat pump

COP=\dfrac{T_2}{T_2-T_1}

2.5=\dfrac{T_2}{T_2-(273+85)}

2.5 T₂ -  895= T₂

T₂=596.66 K

T₂=323.6 °C

Where the velocity is highest in the radial direction? Why?
posledela

Answer:

In the center and directed away from it.

Explanation:

The direction along the radius and directed away from the center is known as radial direction.

The velocity is highest in the radial direction pointing away from the center, this is because of the reason that  when the particle executes its motion in the direction that is radial, then it is not acted upon by any force that opposes the motion of the particle and thus there is no obstruction to the velocity of the particle and it is therefore, the highest in the radial direction.
