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

A spring on a horizontal surface can be stretched and held 0.5 m from its equilibrium position with a force of 60 N. a. How much
Lostsunrise [7]

Answer:

a)1815Joules b) 185Joules

Explanation:

Hooke's law states that the extension of a material is directly proportional to the applied force provided that the elastic limit is not exceeded. Mathematically;

F = ke where;

F is the applied force

k is the elastic constant

e is the extension of the material

From the formula, k = F/e

F1/e1 = F2/e2

If a force of 60N causes an extension of 0.5m of the string from its equilibrium position, the elastic constant of the spring will be ;

k = 60/0.5

k = 120N/m

a) To get the work done in stretching the spring 5.5m from its position,

Work done by the spring = 1/2ke²

Given k = 120N/m, e = 5.5m

Work done = 1/2×120×5.5²

Work done = 60× 5.5²

Work done = 1815Joules

b) work done in compressing the spring 1.5m from its equilibrium position will be gotten using the same formula;

Work done = 1/2ke²

Work done =1/2× 120×1.5²

Works done = 60×1.5²

Work done = 135Joules

A drag racer starts her car from rest and accelerates at 5.5 m/s2 for the entire distance of 523 m. How long did it take the car
ANEK [815]

Answer:

t = 13.7 s or t = 14 s with proper significant figures

Explanation:

The initial speed is 0 m/s since the car starts from rest, acceleration is 5.5 m/s2 and distance is 523 m.

Since we have initial speed, acceleration and distance we can use the following formula to find the time. We can now use algebra to work out our answer.

d = vt + \frac{1}{2}at²

523 = (0)t + (\frac{1}{2})(5.5)t²

523 = 2.8t²

186.8 = t²

13.7 s = t

(t = 14 s with proper significant figures)
