A completely reversible heat pump produces heat at a rate of 300 kW to warm a house maintained at 248C. The exterior air, which is at 78C, serves as the source. Calculate the rate of entropy change of the two reservoirs and determine if this heat pump satisfies the second law according to the increase of entropy principle.

Which features on mars point to the possibility of liquid water on the planet? impact craters with sharp rims volcanic cones with craters gullies and stream-like channels mountain ranges with faults

Two 1.20-m nonconducting wires meet at a right angle. one segment carries + 2.50 µc of charge distributed uniformly along its length, and the other carries - 2.50 µc distributed uniformly along it, as shown in fig. 21.50. ( a. find the magnitude and direction of the electric field these wires produce at point p, which is 60.0 cm from each wire. ( b. if an electron is released at p, what are the magnitude and direction of the net force that these wires exert on it?
