If a toaster uses 2000 J of electrical energy and produces 1000 J of thermal energy. What is its efficiency?

Awave travels at a speed of 5.2 m/s. if the distance between crests is 0.40 m, what is the frequency of the wave? use f=v/wavelength a. 13 hz b. 2.1 hz c. 0.077 hz d. 5.6 hz

Determine the change in width a, height b, thickness t when a plate is subjected to the uniform distributed load and is made of material having modulus of elasticity e=230 gpa and poisson's ratio ν=1/3. given : a=400 mm and b= 300 mm also the uniformly distributed load in downward y direction of plate is 2 mn/m and in the positive x direction is 3 mn/m and t=20 mm

Aheat engine running backward is called a refrigerator if its purpose is to extract heat from a cold reservoir. the same engine running backward is called a heat pump if its purpose is to exhaust warm air into the hot reservoir. heat pumps are widely used for home heating. you can think of a heat pump as a refrigerator that is cooling the already cold outdoors and, with its exhaust heat qh, warming the indoors. perhaps this seems a little silly, but consider the following. electricity can be directly used to heat a home by passing an electric current through a heating coil. this is a direct, 100% conversion of work to heat. that is, 19.0 \rm kw of electric power (generated by doing work at the rate 19.0 kj/s at the power plant) produces heat energy inside the home at a rate of 19.0 kj/s. suppose that the neighbor's home has a heat pump with a coefficient of performance of 4.00, a realistic value. note: with a refrigerator, "what you get" is heat removed. but with a heat pump, "what you get" is heat delivered. so the coefficient of performance of a heat pump is k=qh/win. an average price for electricity is about 40 mj per dollar. a furnace or heat pump will run typically 200 hours per month during the winter. what does one month's heating cost in the home with a 16.0 kw electric heater? what does one month's heating cost in the home of a neighbor who uses a heat pump to provide the same amount of heating?
