A window air conditioner uses 1125 W of electricity and has a coefficient of performance of 3.41. For simplicity, let's assume that all of that electrical energy is transformed into work done by the air conditioner to cool a room with dimensions of 7 mx 7 mx 3 m. The air inside this room will initially have the same temperature as the air outside (324 K) and the air conditioner will attempt to cool the room to 295 K. For the purposes of estimation, assume that the air in this room will be cooled at constant volume, that the specific heat of the air at constant volume is 720 J/kg-K, and that the density of the air is 1.2 kg/m^3. Required:
a. How much energy must be transferred out of this room in order to decrease the temperature of the air from 324 K to 295 K?
b. How much work will be done by the air conditioner during the process of cooling the room?
c. How much time in minutes will it take for the room to cool using this air conditioner?

Askydiver weighing 140 lb (including equipment) falls vertically downward from an altitude of 19,000 ft and opens the parachute after 18 s of free fall. assume that the force of air resistance, which is directed opposite to the velocity, is of magnitude 0.55|v| when the parachute is closed and is of magnitude 14|v| when the parachute is open, where the velocity v is measured in ft/s. assume that acceleration due to gravity has magnitude 32 ft/s/s; remember that weight is the product of mass and gravitational acceleration. (a) find the speed of the skydiver when the parachute opens. (b) find the distance fallen before the parachute opens. (c) what is the limiting velocity vl after the parachute opens? (d) determine how long the sky diver is in the air after the parachute opens. (e) plot the graph of velocity versus time from the beginning of the fall until the skydiver reaches the ground.
