State the difference between the tresagnet and macadam construction

An electrical kettle is made out of stainless steel,weighs two pounds (when empty) with a heating element that consumes 2 kw of electricity. assuming that the water and the kettle are at the same uniform temperature at any moment of time, calculate the shortest possible time to bring 2 quarts of water from room temperature to the onset of boiling.

Aheat pump using refrigerant-134a heats a house by using underground water at 8°c as the heat source. the house is losing heat at a rate of 60,000 kj/h. the refrigerant enters the compressor at 280 kpa and 0°c, and it leaves at 1 mpa and 60°c. the refrigerant exits the condenser at 30°c. determine: (a) the power input to the heat pump, (b) the rate of heat absorption from the water, and (c) the increase in electric power input if an electric resistance heater is used instead of a heat pump

An insulated tank truck containing 50,000 pounds of double-distilled, deionized water at 30 °c is pumped into a closed, refrigerated storage tank maintained at 5 °c in a facility located on top of mount mitchell, north carolina (elevation 6,684 feet & average july temperature of 84 °f). a)-determine the volume of the storage tank required to hold the purified water. b)- determine the initial and final pressure differences that must be overcome by a liquid pump assuming the storage tank initially contains air at 5 °c. assume the air is slowly bled out of the storage tank during the water transfer c.) during a routine operation today, the tank is slightly ruptured by a stainless steel pipe and a water acrosol of droplets begins to spray out of the storage tank. state all assumptions and determine the internal pressure within the water droplets produced
