A solid cube of side 5cm has a mass of 250g. What is its density in kgm ??​
Mariulka [41]

Answer:

5kgm

Explanation:

convert cm to m and g to kg

250/1000=0.25kg

5/1000=0.05m

then find the density

density=mass/volume

=0.25kg/0.05m

=5kgm

A heat pump has a coefficient of performance that is 60% of the Carnot heat pump coefficient of performance. The heat pump is us
Nataliya [291]

Answer:

T_C=118.8 K= 154.2°C

Explanation:

COP_max of carnot heat pump= \frac{T_{H} }{T_{H}-T_{C} }

where T_H and T_C are temperatures of hot and cold reservoirs

Also COP=\frac{Q_H}{W}

in the question COP= \frac{60}{100} \times COP_{max}

⇒\frac{Q_H}{W} =\frac{60}{100}\times\frac{T_H}{T_H-T_C}

heat is added directly to be as efficient as via heat pump

Q_H= W

and T_H= 24° C= 297 K

1=\frac{60}{100}\times \frac{297}{297-T_C}

on calculating the above equation we get

T_C=118.8 K

the outdoor temperature for efficient addition of heat to interior of home

T_C=118.8 K= 154.2°C
