Dr. Eriksson is working on a material called selenium. She is adding a certain number and type of atoms to the selenium, which will control conductivity. Selenium is most likely what kind of material?

Under conditions for which the same room temperature is maintained by a heating or cooling system, it is not uncommon for a person to feel chilled in the winter but comfortable in the summer. provide a plausible explanation for this situation (with supporting calculations) by considering a room whose air temperature is maintained at 20â°c throughout the year, while the walls of the room are nominally at 27â°c and 14â°c in the summer and winter, respectively. the exposed surface of a person in the room may be assumed to be at a temperature of 32â°c throughout the year and to have an emissivity of 0.90. the coefficient associated with heat transfer by natural convection between the person and the room air is approximately 2 w/m2 â‹…â‹… k. what is the ratio of the thermal resistance due to convection to the thermal resistance due to radiation in the summer? what is the ratio of thermal resistances in the winter

6–55 refrigerant-134a enters the condenser of a residential heat pump at 800 kpa and 358c at a rate of 0.018 kg/s and leaves at 800 kpa as a saturated liquid. if the compressor consumes 1.2 kw of power, determine (a) the cop of the heat pump and (b) the rate of heat absorption from the outside air.

The protons in a nucleus are approximately 2 ✕ 10^−15 m apart. consider the case where the protons are a distance d = 1.93 ✕ 10^−15 m apart. calculate the magnitude of the electric force (in n) between two protons at this distance.
