Answer:
reduction in the amount of CO₂ emissions by that household per year is 9517.2 lbm per year
Explanation:
given data
electricity consume = 14000 kWh
fuel consume = 900 gal
CO₂ produced of fuel = 26.4 lbm/gal
CO₂ produced of electricity = 1.54 lbm/kWh
oil and electricity usage = 21 percent
to find out
the reduction in the amount of CO₂ emissions
solution
we calculate the amount of CO₂ produce here that is
amount of CO₂ produce = ( electricity consume×CO₂ produce electricity + fuel consume × CO₂ consume fuel ) ........................1
put here value
amount of CO₂ produce = ( 14000 × 1.54 + 900 × 26.4 )
amount of CO₂ produce = 45320 lbm/yr
we know reduction is 21%
so
reduction in amount of CO₂ produced is
reduction in CO₂ produced = 45320 × 21%
reduction in CO₂ produced = 9517.2 lbm per year
so reduction in the amount of CO₂ emissions by that household per year is 9517.2 lbm per year
Answer:
Yes the student is correct
Explanation:
The first law of thermodynamics states that energy can neither be created nor destroyed
The second law of thermodynamics states that the entropy (disorderliness) of an isolated system always increases
Therefore, whereby energy is not supplied to maintain the orderly oscillatory motion with constant amplitude, the amplitude of the system is bound to reduce with time that is the vibration of the system must be damped
Temperatures above 100 are gases
