Answer:
a) 
Explanation:
a) Let consider that heat pump is reversible, so that the Coefficient of Performance is:



The minimum heat received by the house must be equal to the heat lost to keep the average temperature constant. Hence:

The minimum power supplied to the heat pump is:



A <u>centrifugal switch</u> is used commonly in open split-phase motors to disconnect the start winding from the electrical circuit when the motor reaches approximately 75% of its rated speed.

Answer:
Force magnitude = 296.7 N
Explanation:
Detailed illustration is given in the attached document.
Answer:
The steady-state temperature difference is 2.42 K
Explanation:
Rate of heat transfer = kA∆T/t
Rate of heat transfer = 6 W
k is the heat transfer coefficient = 152 W/m.K
A is the area of the square silicon = width^2 = (7/1000)^2 = 4.9×10^-5 m^2
t is the thickness of the silicon = 3 mm = 3/1000 = 0.003 m
6 = 152×4.9×10^-5×∆T/0.003
∆T = 6×0.003/152×4.9×10^-5 = 2.42 K
