Answer question 2 based on the results of question 1. You have a natural gas furnace in your home that used 78,500 cubic feet of natural gas for heating last winter. Your neighbor has a furnace that burns heating oil, and used 516 gallons of heating oil last winter. You can convert the natural gas and heating oil consumption data into Btu to determine which home used more energy for heating. Natural gas BTU: 1,028 Btu per cubic foot Oil BTU: 138,590 Btu per gallon Natural Gas BTU= 80698000 Btu Oil BTU = 71512440 Btu The home that used a natural gas furnace used more energy for heating. 2. You need a new furnace for your home, and you are comparing systems that use natural gas and heating oil. One factor to consider is the cost of fuel. You can compare the price of the fuels on an equal basis by dividing the price per unit of the fuels by the Btu content per unit of the fuels to get a price per million Btu. Assume Natural gas price = $10.50 per thousand cubic…
Question 2. A household with electric resistance heating plans to switch from resistive heating to a ground source heat pump. Annual heat consumption of the house is 30 000 kWh. Investment cost of the heat pump is 21 000 €. Heat pumps COP is 4.0. How much are the annual savings compared to resistive heating after the change of the heating system (in kWh)? Average price of electricity is assumed to be 12 c/kWh. Round off your answer to one decimal digit and enter it without the unit.

* Your answer is incorrect. A gas undergoes a process in a piston-cylinder assembly during which the pressure-specific volume relation is pv¹.2 = constant. The mass of the gas is 0.4 lb and the following data are known: p₁ = 160 lbf/in.², V₁ = 1 ft³, and p2 = 300 lbf/in.² During the process, heat transfer from the gas is 2.1 Btu. Kinetic and potential energy effects are negligible. Determine the change in specific internal energy of the gas, in Btu/lb. Δu = i | 76.53 Btu/lb
