A refrigerator has a coefficient of performance equal to 4.2. How much work must be done on the refrigerator in order to remove

250 J of heat from the interior?
Physics

Answer:

59.52 J.

Explanation:

The Formula of Coefficient of performance is given as,

η = Q/W ........................ Equation 1

Where η = Coefficient of performance, Q = The heat from the interior, W = Work done by the refrigerator.

make W the subject of the equation

W = Q/η .................. Equation 2

Given: Q = 250 J, η = 4.2

Substitute into equation 2

W = 250/4.2

W = 59.52 J.

Hence the work done by the refrigerator = 59.52 J.

Two runners ran side by side each holding one end of a horizontal pole. What would most likely happen if one of the runners bega
Anettt [7]

Answer:

See explanation.

Explanation:

If each runner was holding the pole, the runner in the water side of the pole would probably be behind the other runner. Since running in knee deep is hard and makes you slower, the pole would be slanted.

Answer:

D) -Q

Explanation:

The charge inserted will induce -Q charge on the inner surface and + Q on the outer surface of the shell . This charge is called bound charge because it remained attached with opposite charge inserted inside.

A star orbiting a black hole in a clockwise direction at a radial distance of 1.0 × 106 km is acted upon by a counterclockwise f
snow_tiger [21]

Answer:

2.5 \times 10^{11} N-m upwards        

Explanation:

Torque is the vector cross product of the force and radial distance.

\tau = rF sin \theta

\tau = (1.0\times 10^6 \times 10^3) m \times 250 N\times sin 90^o \\\Rightarrow \tau= 2.5 \times 10^{11} N-m

The direction of the torque would be perpendicular to the direction of the force and radial distance. The direction of the force is counter-clockwise. The direction of the torque would be upwards.

A sample of an unknown volatile liquid was injected into a Dumas flask (mflask = 27.0928 g, Vflask = 0.1040 L) and heated until
NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

The gas was Hexane

Explanation:

taking the diference between the mass of the flask and the final mass qe can calculate the mass of liquid injected (assuming none escaped the flask):

m_{l}  = 27.4593g - 27.0928g = 0.3665g

with the volume of the flask we can get the density of the gas at the indicated pressure and temperature:

d_{g}  = \frac{0.3665 g}{0.1040L} = 3.524 g/L

From the ideal gases law we have that the density can be calculated as:

d_{g}  = \frac{P*M}{R*T}

Where R is the ideal gases constant = , and M the molecular weight of the fluid. Solving for M:

M=\frac{d_{g}*R*T}{P}=\frac{3.524g/L*0,082atmL/molK*291K}{0.976atm}

M=86.16 g/mol

Note that the temperature is computed in Kelvin T= 18+273=291K

The gas with the closer molar mass is Hexane
