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.

Why is their displacement the same when the distance each traveled was different?
motikmotik
Displacement is how far something is from its starting position

for example if X moved 10 feet, turned around and moved 30 feet, its distance would be 40, but the displacement would be 20,
and if Y Moved 2 feet, and turned around and moved 22 feet, its distance would be 24, but its displacement would also be 20

PLZ HELP!<br> Which is NOT an example of a longitudinal wave?
LenaWriter [7]

The 1st example is NOT a longitudinal wave

Explanation:

Waves are periodic disturbance of the space that travel carrying energy but not matter.

Depending on their vibration, waves are classified into two types:

  • Transverse waves: in transverse waves, the vibration of the wave occurs in a direction perpendicular to the direction of propagation of the wave. Examples of transverse waves are electromagnetic waves.
  • Longitudinal waves: in longitudinal waves, the vibration of the wave occurs in a direction parallel to the direction of propagation of the wave (back  and forth), creating regions of higher particle density (compressions) and lower particle density (rarefactions). Examples of longitudinal waves are sound waves.

In  this problem we have four options given:

  1. The first picture represents a transverse wave, because the vibration of the robe is up and down, while the wave propagates on the left-right direction
  2. The second picture represents a sound wave, which is a longitudinal wave
  3. The 3rd picture represents a longitudinal wave, since the vibration of the slinky is back and forth along the direction of propagation
  4. The 4th picture also represents a sound wave, which is longitudinal

Therefore, the only wave which is not longitudinal is the one in the 1st picture.

Does a stick of dynamite contain force?
I am Lyosha [343]

No.  Force isn't something you can enclose in a box, an envelope,
or a bottle.

A stick of dynamite contains some amount of a chemical compound which,
when triggered by enough heat or shock, undergoes a chemical reaction
that proceeds very rapidly, and generates a large quantity of gases before
the gases can dissipate.  This creates very high pressure around the reaction,
and it's this pressure in a small volume that exerts great force for a very short
time.     The whole process is often described as an "explosion".

Two identical trucks, having the same mass, are traveling down a long straight flat road at constant speeds. However, Truck A ha
denis-greek [22]

Answer:

Momentum

Explanation:

Truck A has a greater momentum compared to Truck B.

Momentum is the product of mass and velocity of a body;

     Momentum = mass x velocity

We see that the body with more mass and velocity will have a higher momentum.

Since the two bodies have the same mass, and the speed A is greater, then A will have a greater momentum.
