Acave rescue team lifts an injured spelunker directly upward and out of a sinkhole by means of a motor-driven cable. the lift is performed in three stages, each requiring a vertical distance of 10.0 m:
(a) the initially stationary spelunker is accelerated to a speed of 5.00m/s;
(b) he is then lifted at the constant speed of 5.00m/s;
(c) finally he is decelerated to zero speed. how much work is done on the 80.0kg rescuee by the force lifting him during each stage?

6–55 refrigerant-134a enters the condenser of a residential heat pump at 800 kpa and 358c at a rate of 0.018 kg/s and leaves at 800 kpa as a saturated liquid. if the compressor consumes 1.2 kw of power, determine (a) the cop of the heat pump and (b) the rate of heat absorption from the outside air.

Clothing made of several thin layers of fabric with trapped air in between, often called ski clothing, is commonly used in cold climates because it is light, fashionable, and a very effective thermal insulator. so it is no surprise that such clothing has largely replaced thickand heavy old-fashioned coats. (a) consider a jacket made of five layers of 0.1-mm-thick synthetic fabric (k = 0.13 w/m·°c) with 1.5-mm-thick air space (k = 0.026 w/m·°c) between the layers. assuming the inner surface temperature of the jacket to be 28°c and the surface area to be 1.25 m2, determine the rate of heat loss through the jacket when the temperature of the outdoors is 0°c and the heat transfer coefficient at the outer surface is 25 w/m2·°c. (b) what would your response be if the jacket is made of a single layer of 0.5-mm-thick synthetic fabric? what should be the thickness of a wool fabric (k = 0.035 w/m·°c) if the person is to achieve the same level of thermal comfort wearing a thick wool coat instead of a five-layer ski jacket?

What’s #16 asking and how do i solve it?
