Question
A heat pump is an electrical device that heats a building by pumping heat in from the cold outside. In other words, it's the same as a refrigerator, but its purpose is to warm the hot reservoir rather than to cool the cold reservoir (even though it does both). Let us define the following standard symbols, all taken to be positive by convention:
Th = temperature inside building
Te = temperature outside
Qh heat pumped into building in 1 day Qe = heat taken from outdoors in 1 day
W = electrical energy used by heat pump in 1 day
What relation among Qh, Qe) and W is implied by energy conservation alone? Will energy conservation permit the COP to be greater than I?

A couple of useful facts for this problem. Food calories are actually kilocalories. 1.000 kilocalorie = 4184 Joule We will assume that the average specific heat of this person's body is 3.00 J/gºC. Enter your answer in ºC with at least 2 sig figs. Just so you are not afraid to eat or drink things, a healthy body is very good at regulating temperature- the bad news is that unless you use it right away, our bodies are very good at converting sugar into fat.arrow_forwardEnergy cannot be created nor destroyed, but it can be transferred between a system and its surroundings. The change in internal energy, AU, is positive if the system absorbs energy, and it is negative if the system releases energy. (Figure 1) The total change in internal energy is the sum of the heat, q, and work, w: AU=q+w. igure AU Allgyntem >0 Al system ▼ Part A Classify the following by the sign of AU for the system.
