A window‐mounted air‐conditioning unit (AC) removes energy by heat transfer from a room, and rejects energy by heat transfer to

the outside air. At steady‐state, the AC cycle requires 0.434kW and has a coefficient of performance (COP) of 6.22. Determine the rate at which the energy is removed from the room air, in kW. If electricity is valued at $0.10/kw-hr, determine the cost of operating the unit for 24hrs.

Solution :

Given :

The power of the air‐conditioning (AC) unit is , W = 0.434 kW

The coefficient of performance or the COP of the air‐conditioning (AC) unit is given by = 6.22

Therefore he heat removed is given by , $Q_H = 6.22 \times 0.434$

$Q_H = 2.7 \ kW$

Now if the electricity is valued at 0.10 dollar per kW hour, then the operating cost of the air conditioning unit in 24 hours is given by = 0.10 x 2.7 x 24

= 6.48

Therefore the operating cost = $ 6.48 for 24 hours.

Interpret the assembly program below: MOV R3,R0;

Reika [66]

Answer:

Explanation:

1. With the operands R0, R1, the program would compute AND operation and ADD operation .

2. The operands could truly be signed 2's complement encoded (i.e Yes) .

3. The overflow truly occurs when two numbers that are unsigned were added and the result is larger than the capacity of the register, in that situation, overflow would occur and it could corrupt the data.

When the result of an operation is smaller in magnitude than the smallest value represented by the data type, then arithmetic underflow will occur.

A smooth sphere with a diameter of 6 inches and a density of 493 lbm/ft^3 falls at terminal speed through sea water (S.G.=1.0027

Pachacha [2.7K]

Given:

diameter of sphere, d = 6 inches

radius of sphere, r = $\frac{d}{2}$ = 3 inches

density, $\rho}$ = 493 lbm/ $ft^{3}$

S.G = 1.0027

g = 9.8 m/ $m^{2}$ = 386.22 inch/ $s^{2}$

Solution:

Using the formula for terminal velocity,

$v_{T}$ = $\sqrt{\frac{2V\rho g}{A \rho C_{d}}}$ (1)

$(Since, m = V\times \rho)$

where,

V = volume of sphere

$C_{d}$ = drag coefficient

Now,

Surface area of sphere, A = $4\pi r^{2}$

Volume of sphere, V = $\frac{4}{3} \pi r^{3}$

Using the above formulae in eqn (1):

$v_{T}$ = $\sqrt{\frac{2\times \frac{4}{3} \pir^{3}\rho g}{4\pi r^{2} \rho C_{d}}}$

$v_{T}$ = $\sqrt{\frac{2gr}{3C_{d}}}$

$v_{T}$ = $\sqrt{\frac{2\times 386.22\times 3}{3C_{d}}}$

Therefore, terminal velcity is given by:

$v_{T}$ = $\frac{27.79}{\sqrt{C_d}}$ inch/sec

A car accelerates from O to 60. miles per hour in 5.2 seconds. Calculate acceleration in m/s seconds. Calculate acceleration in

DochEvi [55]

Answer:

$a=5.515\frac{m}{s^{2} }$

Explanation:

The first thing we will do is convert the units. Miles per hour to meters per second.

$1 mile=1609.34 mts.$

$1 hora=3600 segundos$

Performing the operations

$60\frac{mile}{h}=\frac{(60*1609.34)}{3600}\frac{m}{s}=26.822\frac{m}{s}$

Now, we will use the acceleration formula

$a=\frac{v}{t}$

Where v = speed and t = time

Substituting the values of $t=5.2s$

$a=\frac{v}{t} =\frac{26.822\frac{m}{s} }{5.2s} =5.15\frac{m}{s^{2} }$
