Aheat pump using refrigerant-134a heats a house by using underground water at 8°c as the heat source. the house is losing heat at a rate of 64000 kj/h. the refrigerant enters the compressor at 240 kpa and 0°c and leaves at 1.4 mpa and 80°c. the refrigerant exits the condenser at 34°c.
a.)determine the power input to the heat pump. kw
b.)determine the rate of heat absorption from the water. kw
c.)determine the increase in electric power input if an electric resistance heater is used instead of a heat pump. kw

Afeather of mass 0.001 kg falls from a height of 2 m. under realistic conditions, it experiences air resistance. based on what you know about friction, what can you say about the kinetic energy of the feather as it reaches the ground? acceleration due to gravity is g = 9.8 m/s2. a. ke < 0.0196 j b. ke = 00196 j c. je = 0 j d. ke > 0.0196 j

Electric field of the earth. the earth has a net electric charge that causes a field at points near its surface equal to 150 n> c and directed in toward the center of the earth. (a) what magnitude and sign of charge would a 60-kg human have to acquire to overcome his or her weight by the force exerted by the earth’s electric field? (b) what would be the force of repulsion between two people each with the charge calculated in part (a) and separated by a distance of 100 m? is use of the earth’s electric field a feasible means of flight? why or why not?

What does the law of conservation of mass state?
