Answer:

1. Hot air is less dense and has moved upward allowing cool air to move downward which is less dens

(Convection current)

2. The ceiling has transferred heat to him by radiation.

Explanation:

During the day when air is heated as a result of the ceiling transferring heat to it, it becomes less dens and it gains energy, which make it lighter in weight than cooler air, this hot air moves upward allowing cooler air to move downward.

Answer:

3.33, 4.84

Explanation:

A) Actual coefficient of performance can be calculated by the formula stated below

Actual COP = heat delivered/ work required

Actual COP = 2,000/600

Actual COP = 3.33

B) Th = High temperature = 80°C + 273 = 353K

Tl = Low temperature = 7°C + 273 = 280K

The theoretical maximum coefficient of performance can ve calculated by the formula

Theoretical COP = Th/(Th-Tl)

Theoretical COP = 353/(353-280)

Theoretical COP = 353/73

Theoretical COP = 4.84

The sales price of a product is $2 per unit; the variable cost is $1 per unit; and fixed costs total $1,000. how many units must
irakobra [83]

Answer:

<u><em>1000 units for breakeven</em></u>

Explanation:

Let x be the number of units sold at breakeven.

The total sales at the point would be $2x.

Variable costs would be $1x and fixed costs are $1000.

Total costs are = $1x + $1000

At breakeven: Sales = Costs

Sales =m Costs

$2x = $1x + $1000

$1x = $1000

x = 1000 units.

At 1000 units the sales are equal to the costs ("breakeven").
