A refrigerator has a COP of 9.5 and the power input is 80 watts. Calculate how many joules of energy input the refrigerator uses in 1 day and convert this into kilowatt-hours. Calculate the total energy Q(C) extracted in 1 day. If 1 kilowatt-hour of energy input costs 15 cents, calculate the cost of running the refrigerator for 1 day. Imagine 3% of the total Q(C) is used to freeze water at 0◦C into ice at 0◦C. Calculate the mass of ice the refrigerator can make in 1 day.

this is a thermodynamics course We want to model energy and mass balance issues involved in strenuous exercise, for example the running of a marathon. Suppose a 70 kg marathon runner runs at an ≈8 minute/mile pace, completing the 26.2 mile race distance in 210 minutes, or 3.5 hours. a.) Physiological measurements indicate that the total power consumed by an average weight runner (70 kg) at a pace of 8 minutes/mile is about 900 kcal/hour. What is the total energy...
