An ideal heat pump supplies heat energy to a house at the rate of 140,000 kj/h when the house is maintained at 25°c. over a period of one month, the heat pump operates for 100 hours to transfer energy from a heat source outside the house to inside the house. consider an ideal heat pump receiving heat from two different outside energy sources. in one application the ideal heat pump receives heat from the outside air at -10°c. in a second application the heat pump receives heat from a lake having a water temperature of 10°c. if electricity costs $0.09/kwh, determine the maximum money (in dollars and cents) saved by using the lake water rather than the outside air as the outside energy source. (do not insert $ in your answer and be accurate to the penny).

Amass of m 1.5 kg of steam is contained in a closed rigid container. initially the pressure and temperature of the steam are: p 1.5 mpa and t 240°c (superheated state), respectively. then the temperature drops to t2= 100°c as the result of heat transfer to the surroundings. determine: a) quality of the steam at the end of the process, b) heat transfer with the surroundings. for: p1.5 mpa and t 240°c: enthalpy of superheated vapour is 2900 kj/kg, specific volume of superheated vapour is 0. 1483 m/kg, while for t 100°c: enthalpy of saturated liquid water is 419kj/kg, specific volume of saturated liquid water is 0.001043m/kg, enthalpy of saturated vapour is 2676 kj/kg, specific volume of saturated vapour is 1.672 m/kg and pressure is 0.1 mpa.
