Answer:

Explanation:
Temperature of the house, 
Convert to rankine, 
Heat is extracted at 40°F i.e 
Calculate the coefficient of performance of the heat pump, COP

The minimum power required to run the heat pump is given by the formula:
...............(*)
Where the heat losses from the house, 
Substituting these values into * above

Answer:
(a) 1.16 s
(b)0.861 Hz
Explanation:
(a) Period : The period of a simple harmonic motion is the time in seconds, required for a object undergoing oscillation to complete one cycle.
From the question,
If 1550 cycles is completed in (30×60) seconds,
1 cycle is completed in x seconds
x = 30×60/1550
x = 1.16 s
Hence the period is 1.16 seconds.
(b) Frequency : This can be defined as the number of cycles that is completed in one seconds, by an oscillating body. The S.I unit of frequency is Hertz (Hz).
Mathematically, Frequency is given as
F = 1/T ........................... Equation 1
Where F = frequency, T = period.
Given: T = 1.16 s.
Substitute into equation 1
F = 1/1.16
F = 0.862 Hz
Hence thee frequency = 0.862 Hz
Answer:
The difference between ice and steam in Celsius (Centigrade) is 100 deg.
So the difference between and 4 cm and 24 cm of the thread corresponds to 100 deg C.
So 8 cm is 4 cm greater than the ice point
4 cm / 20 cm = 1/5 since the steam point and the ice point are 20 cm apart
Then 1/5 * 100 deg C = 20 deg C the requested temperature
