A thermostat control with dial markings from 0 to 100 is used to regulate the temperature of an oil bath. A calibration plot on logarithmic coordinates of the temperature, T ('F), versus the dial setting, R, is a straight line that passes through the points (R1 = 20.0, T1 =110.0 °F) and (Rz = 40.0, T2 = 250.0 °F). (a) Derive an equation for T (°F) in terms of R. (b) Estimate the thermostat setting needed to obtain a temperature of 320°F.

A chamber of unknown volume is filled with an unknown amount of ideal gas. A cylinder with an open bottom and calibrated volume is connected to the chamber and is closed with a movable piston. A gas pressure sensor is also mounted on the chamber as shown in the figure. The whole experimental setup is kept at a constant temperature of 300 K. Doris moves the piston from mark 0 to mark 200 mL in steps of 50 mL and records the corresponding pressure in the chamber (see the table below). She moves the piston very slowly and waits several minutes before recording the pressure values.

A thermocouple is used to measure the temperature T1. The thermocouple reference junction labeled 2 is at a temperature of 20°C. The voltage output is measured using a potentiometer and found to be 4.686 mV. What is T1 in degrees RK: if the temperature values are not in the table, you have to use interpolation.

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 buildingTe = temperature outsideQh heat pumped into building in 1 day Qe = heat taken from outdoors in 1 dayW = electrical energy used by heat pump in 1 day Explain why a heat pump is better than an electric furnace, which simply converts electrical work directly into heat. (Include some numerical estimates. )
The differential change in pressure p close to the surface of a static fluid is given by the following expression:dp/dy = -3Ap2,where A is a constant, with units of 1/(atm•m), and p is the pressure in atm. The pressure at the surface of the fluid is p(0) = 1 atm, and the coordinate y here is positive upwards with origin at the surface. An absulute pressure gauge is placed at a depth 0.19m in the fluid. What would be the reading of the pressure gauge in units in atm? you can take the constant A=1(atm.m)^-1
