A heat pump is to be used for heating a house in winter. The house is to be maintained at 70°F at all times. When the temperature outdoors drops to 40°F, the heat losses from the house are estimated to be 75,000 Btu/h. Determine the minimum power [Btu/h] required to run this heat pump if heat is extracted from the outdoor air at 40°F.

Suppose that recording station n is located 200 km north of the epicenter of an earthquake, and recording station s is located 100 km south of the epicenter of the same earthquake. which of the following statements would be true?

Agas initially at p1 = 1 bar and occupying a volume of 0.5 liter is compressed within a piston–cylinder assembly to a final pressure p2 = 4 bar. (a) if the relationship between pressure and volume during the compression is pv = constant, determine the volume, in liters, at a pressure of 3 bar. (b) repeat for a linear pressure–volume relationship between the same end states. reference
