(17%) Problem 3: Answer the following question about the coefficient of performance (COP). Randomized Variables Tc = -1.1° F Th = 61° F What is the maximum coefficient of performance (COP) for a freezer that is set to maintain the cold space at -1.1° F, which is located in a kitchen that is maintained at 61° F? COP =

Step 1
We can use the following formula: \( T_{K} = (T_{F} - 32) \times \frac{5}{9} + 273.15 \) For the cold space temperature, \( T_{c} = -1.1^{\circ} F \): \( T_{cK} = (-1.1 - 32) \times \frac{5}{9} + 273.15 \) Show more…

Problem 1: Near the top of the Citigroup Center building in New York City, there is an object with mass of 4.2 × 10⁵ kg on springs that have adjustable force constants. Its function is to dampen wind-driven oscillations of the building by oscillating at the same frequency as the building is being driven—the driving force is transferred to the object, which oscillates instead of the entire building. Part (a) What effective force constant, in N/m, should the springs have to make them oscillate with a period of 2.2 s? k = Part (b) What energy, in joules, is stored in the springs for a 1.8 m displacement from equilibrium?

Problem 7: When builders were constructing a sidewalk, they forgot to include an expansion joint between two of the segments, L = 1.1 m at T0 = 20°C. Assume the opposite ends of each segment are fixed and the linear expansion coefficient is α = 12.6 x 10^-6 °C^-1. Part (a) As the day heats to Tb, the segments press against each other and begin to raise the junction a distance h forming a triangle. What is the height (in meters) at Tb = 110°F? Part (b) What should the gap have been to prevent them from touching in meters?
