Answer:

a. β = 8.23 K

b. β = 28.815 K

Explanation:

Heat pump can be find using the equation

β = TH / TH - TC

a.

TH = 15 ° C + 273.15 K = 288.15 K

TC = - 20 ° C + 273.15 K = 253.15 K

β = 288.15 K / 288.15 k - ( 253.15 K )

β = 8.23 K

b.

TH = 15 ° C + 273.15 K = 288.15 K

TC = 5 ° C + 273.15 K = 278.15 K

β = 288.15 K / 288.15 k - ( 278.15 K )

β = 28.815 K

One student did an experiment on the rock cycle.
Nonamiya [84]
First, when the student added the layers of wax over each other, this became a representation of sedimentary rocks.

Then the student folded his/her palm and squeezed the layers of wax. This means that the student applied heat and pressure on the wax (sedimentary rocks)

Referring to the diagram below which represents the rock cycle, we will find that applying heat and pressure on sedimentary rocks would convert these rocks into metamorphic rocks.

Based on the above, the best choice would be:
