A 36 ft simply supported beam is loaded with concentrated loads 16 ft inwards from each support. On the left side, the dead load

is 8.0 kips and the live load is 18.0 kips. On the other side, the dead load is 4.0 kips and the live load is 9.0 kips. Self-weight of the beam can be ignored. Lateral supports are provided at the supports and the load points. Determine the least-weight W-shape to carry the load. Use A992 steel, Cb = 1.0 and Table 3.10 of the 15th edition of the Manual. check if a W21×62 will be sufficient considering the correct Cb. Do not use Table 3.10 and work the problem with calculations.

A geothermal heat pump absorbs 15 KJ/s of heat from the Earth 15 m below a house. This heat pump uses a 7.45 kJ/s compressor.
Oxana [17]

Answer:

COP of heat pump=3.013

COP of cycle=1.124

Explanation

W = Q2 - Q1 ----- equation 1

W = work done

Q2 = final energy

Q1 = initial energy

A) calculate the COP of the heat pump

COP =Q2/W

from equation 1

Q2 = Q1 + W = 15 + 7.45 = 22.45 KW

therefore COP =22.45/7.45  = 3.013

B) COP when cycle is reversed

COP = Q1/W

from equation 1

Q1 + W = Q2 ------ equation 2

Q2 = 15 Btu/s = 15 * 1.055 = 15.825 KW therefore from equation 2

Q1 = 8.375 KW

COP =8.375/7.45   = 1.124

Wastewater flows into a _________ once it is released into a floor drain.
rodikova [14]

Answer:

A) Sump pit

Explanation:

A wastewater typically refers to a body of water that has contaminated through human use in homes, offices, schools, businesses etc. Wastewater are meant to be disposed in accordance with the local regulations and standards because they are unhygienic for human consumption or use.

Generally, many homes use a floor drain in their bathrooms and toilets to remove wastewater in order to mitigate stagnation and to improve hygiene. A floor drain can be defined as a material installed on floors for the continuous removal of any stagnant wastewater in buildings. Wastewater flows into a sump pit once it is released into a floor drain through the use of a pipe such as a polyvinyl chloride (PVC) pipe, which directly connects the floor drain to the sump pit. The wastewater can the be removed from the sump pit when it is filled up through the use of a pump.

Which of the following statements about glycogen metabolism is FALSE?
Ratling [72]

Answer:

Glycogen is the primary energy source for muscle and liver cells.

Explanation:

Glycogen is a readily mobilized storage form of glucose. It is a very large, branched polymer of glucose residues that can be broken down to yield glucose molecules when energy is needed. Most of the glucose residues in glycogen are linked by α-1,4-glycosidic bonds. Branches at about every tenth residue are created by α-1,6-glycosidic bonds.

Glycogen is not as reduced as fatty acids are and consequently not as energy rich. Why do animals store any energy as glycogen? Why not convert all excess fuel into fatty acids? Glycogen is an important fuel reserve for several reasons. The controlled breakdown of glycogen and release of glucose increase the amount of glucose that is available between meals. Hence, glycogen serves as a buffer to maintain blood-glucose levels. Glycogen's role in maintaining blood-glucose levels is especially important because glucose is virtually the only fuel used by the brain, except during prolonged starvation. Moreover, the glucose from glycogen is readily mobilized and is therefore a good source of energy for sudden, strenuous activity. Unlike fatty acids, the released glucose can provide energy in the absence of oxygen and can thus supply energy for anaerobic activity.
