An air conditioner operating at steady state maintains a dwelling at 70oF on a day when the outside temperature is 90oF. If the

rate of heat transfer into the dwelling through the walls and roof is 30,000 Btu/h, might a net power input to the air conditioner compressor of 3 hp be sufficient? If yes, determine the coefficient of performance. If no, determine the minimum theoretical power input, in hp.

30000 btuh /3413 btuh/kw. = 8.8 kw

8.8 kw/.746 kw/hp = 11.8 hp if COP is 1

11.8/3 hp (COP coefficient of performance) = 3.99 COP

>>>So yes a 3.0 hp compressor with a nominal COP of 4 will handle the 30,000 btuh load.

3.2 to 4.5 is expected COP range for an air cooled heat pump or a/c unit.

TEA [102]
It would be hard so many factors play a role in this angle kinetic potential energy gravity positioning height weight etc.to keep something as described moving as long as possible you'd have to build it heavily enough to balance out the momentum at each climax of the swing to balance with the gravitational pull of the earth core.I'd use a material such as copper for the variable.Also the weight distribution on the variables base plays a role.Take all the into account and experiment for a while!maybe one day you could find the right proportions in every role for kinetic potential gravitational momentum and weight to keep it going forever. As said alotta factors play a huge role in this experiment  <span />

You are watching an archery tournament when you start wondering how fast an arrow is shot from the bow. Remembering your physics
spayn [35]

Answer:

v_0 = 3.53~{\rm m/s}

Explanation:

This is a projectile motion problem. We will first separate the motion into x- and y-components, apply the equations of kinematics separately, then we will combine them to find the initial velocity.

The initial velocity is in the x-direction, and there is no acceleration in the x-direction.

On the other hand, there no initial velocity in the y-component, so the arrow is basically in free-fall.

Applying the equations of kinematics in the x-direction gives

x - x_0 = v_{x_0} t + \frac{1}{2}a_x t^2\\63 \times 10^{-3} = v_0t + 0\\t = \frac{63\times 10^{-3}}{v_0}

For the y-direction gives

v_y = v_{y_0} + a_y t\\v_y = 0 -9.8t\\v_y = -9.8t

Combining both equation yields the y_component of the final velocity

v_y = -9.8(\frac{63\times 10^{-3}}{v_0}) = -\frac{0.61}{v_0}

Since we know the angle between the x- and y-components of the final velocity, which is 180° - 2.8° = 177.2°, we can calculate the initial velocity.

\tan(\theta) = \frac{v_y}{v_x}\\\tan(177.2^\circ) = -0.0489 = \frac{v_y}{v_0} = \frac{-0.61/v_0}{v_0} = -\frac{0.61}{v_0^2}\\v_0 = 3.53~{\rm m/s}

An object is moving at constant speed of 5mph &amp; the net force = 0 N. Which statement is true? a The object will stop moving.
ra1l [238]

Answer:

The object will continue moving at 5 mph ( b )

Explanation:

For an object moving at a constant speed, the forces acting on it cancels each other out, or there are no external forces atall. hence its net force = 0 N . so the true statement is that the object will continue moving at its constant speed of 5 mph because its net force = 0 N

When a wire is made thicker its resistance what?
NeTakaya
Making a wire thicker has the same effect as making a road wider. It makes it easier for the electron traffic to flow. The resistance decreases, and the current (traffic) increases.

Three pairs of wooden dowel rods are mounted on a wooden platform. Small plastic cylinders are attached to their ends; the cylin
katovenus [111]

The natural frequency of this dowel rod is determined as 0.5 Hz.

<h3>What is frequency?</h3>

The frequency of an object is the number of complete revolutions per second.

F = n/t

where;

  • n is number of compete revolution
  • t is time

F = 1/2

F = 0.5 Hz

Thus, the natural frequency of this dowel rod is determined as 0.5 Hz.
