Fire extinguishers are commonly colored red, which aligns with the red of fire trucks and the general association of red with emergencies. Although there is no official standard, altering the colors could lead to confusion, potentially endangering lives. Therefore, it seems that red will likely remain the color of fire extinguishers for the foreseeable future.

3.113 A heat pump is under consideration for heating a research station located on Antarctica ice shelf. The interior of the sta
ValentinkaMS [2425]

Answer:

a. β = 8.23 K

b. β = 28.815 K

Explanation:

The performance of the heat pump can be calculated using the formula

β = TH / (TH - TC)

a.

TH = 15 ° C + 273.15 K = 288.15 K

TC = - 20 ° C + 273.15 K = 253.15 K

β = 288.15 K / (288.15 K - 253.15 K)

β = 8.23 K

b.

TH = 15 ° C + 273.15 K = 288.15 K

TC = 5 ° C + 273.15 K = 278.15 K

β = 288.15 K / (288.15 K - 278.15 K)

β = 28.815 K

How long does it take to raise the temperature of the air in a good-sized living room (3.00m×5.00m×8.00m) by 10.0∘C? Note that t
Softa [2035]
The required duration is 16.1 minutes. To determine the heat needed to raise the temperature, we must calculate the following amounts, where Q represents the required heat, m stands for mass, V represents the volume, C signifies specific heat, and ΔT indicates temperature change. After substituting the provided values into the formula and calculating, the next step is determining the required time based on the formula t = Q/P, where P is given as 1500 W. Ultimately, we find that the time needed is 16.1 minutes.

If a person weighs 882 N on the surface of the earth, at what altitude above the earth’s surface must they be for their weight t
Sav [2230]

Para calcular el peso utilizamos la fórmula:
F=m*g=882N

Cuando tenemos dos cuerpos, empleamos la fórmula de la gravedad general:
F=G* \frac{ M_{p}*M_{E} }{ r^{2} }
Donde:
G = constante de gravedad = 6.67* 10^{-11} m^{3} kg^{-1} s^{-2}
Mp = masa de la persona = 882 / 9.81= 89.9kg
ME = masa de la Tierra = 5.97* 10^{24} kg
r = distancia entre la Tierra y la persona

A partir de estas dos fórmulas, deducimos que los lados izquierdos son equivalentes, por lo tanto, los lados derechos también deben serlo.
m*g=G* \frac{ M_{p}*M_{E} }{ r^{2} }

Resolviendo esta ecuación para r:
r= \sqrt{G* \frac{ M_{p}*M_{E}}{M_{p}*g}
r=6371116m = 6371.116km

Esta es la distancia desde el centro de la Tierra. El radio de la Tierra es 6370km y la altura sobre la superficie es 6371.116 - 6370 = 1.116km o 1116m.

A window washer on a hanging platform cleans the outside of windows on a skyscraper. The washer hoists the platform up the side
kicyunya [2264]

Answer:

The acceleration of the platform is - 1.8 m/s²

Explanation:

The net force on a body causes that body to accelerate in the direction of the resultant force applied.

Setting up the force equilibrium for the configuration:

ma = 800 - mg

100a = 800 - 100×9.8

100a = - 180

100a = - 180

a = - 1.8 m/s²

This indicates that the body is falling downward.
