The coefficient of performance of a residential heat pump is 1.6. Calculate the heating effect in kJ/s this heat pump will produ
grin007 [14]

Answer:

8 KJ/ s

Explanation:

Heat pumps Transfer thermal energy through absorbing of heat that comes from cold region and then release to warmer area by utilizing external power.

The coefficient of performance known as COP provide the ratio of both heating and cooling that are supplied to required work.

✓QH=The rate at which heat is produced = ?

✓COP= Coefficient of performance of a residential heat pump = 1.6

✓ W(in)= power consumption= 5KW

QH=The rate at which heat is produced=[Coefficient of performance of a residential heat pump] × [power consumption]

= 1.6 × 5KW

=8 KJ/ s

The howler monkey is the loudest land animal and, under some circumstances, can be heard up to a distance of 8.9 km. Assume the
Airida [17]

Answer:

\frac{I}{I_0}=113.68

Explanation:

P = Acoustic power = 63 µW

r = Distance to the sound source = 210 m

Acoustic power

P=IA\\\Rightarrow I=\frac{P}{A}\\\Rightarrow I=\frac{63\times 10^{-6}}{4\times \pi \times 210^2}

Threshold intensity = I_0=1\times 10^{-12}\ W/m^2

Ratio

\frac{I}{I_0}=\frac{\frac{63\times 10^{-6}}{4\times \pi \times 210^2}}{1\times 10^{-12}}\\\Rightarrow \frac{I}{I_0}=113.68

Ratio of the acoustic intensity produced by the juvenile howler to the reference intensity is 113.68

A scientist mixes an unknown powder into a beaker of water. He then uses an indicator and finds that the pH of the resulting sol
zaharov [31]
A ph higher than 7 is basic so you can eliminate a.  The indicator can be used to measure both acids and bases so you can eliminate c.   Hydrogen ions are from acids, so the answer is that the powder decreased the hydrogen ions in the water.
