We need to lift an object from a point A to another point B. So, we have these variables:

For the object:
m = 63Kg

Height:
h = 7in

Time:
t = 5s

Horsepower (hp) is a unit of measurement of power. So, the term was adopted in the late 18th century by Scottish engineer James Watt to compare the output of steam engines with the power of draft horses. So:

$P = \frac{W}{t}$

So, we need to calculate the work W. A force is said to do work if, when acting, there is a displacement of the point of application in the direction of the force. In a mathematical language:

W=Fd

Given that the displacement is vertically, this force will be:

$F=mg=(63kg)(9.8m/s^{2})=617.4N$

We need to convert the unit in into m, so:

1in = 0.0254m

Then:
7in = 0.1778m

Therefore, as the displacement d = h:

W = (617.4)(0.1778)=109.77(J)

Finally:

$P= \frac{109.77}{5}=21.95W$

The result is expressed in Watts, so we need to convert it into hp, so:

1hp = 746W

$P= 21.95W(\frac{1hp}{746W})=0.03hp$

so here is the information for current research:

-nrel's geothermal analysts, scientists, and engineers perform a full range of research from developing advanced methods of locating and accessing geothermal resources to exploring innovative technologies to extract and produce clean energy from the heat of the earth

and here is the information for the technology of geothermal energy:

-it's clean and sustainable

-resources of geothermal energy range from the shallow ground to hot water and hot rock found a few miles beneath the earth's surface, and down even deeper to the extremely high temperatures of molten rock called magma

-almost everywhere, the shallow ground or upper 10 feet of the earth's surface maintains a nearly constant temperature between 50° and 60°f (10° and 16°c)

-geothermal heat pumps can tap into this resource to heat and cool buildings

-a geothermal heat pump system consists of a heat pump, an air delivery system (ductwork), and a heat exchanger-a system of pipes buried in the shallow ground near the building

-in the winter, the heat pump removes heat from the heat exchanger and pumps it into the indoor air delivery system

-in the summer, the process is reversed, and the heat pump moves heat from the indoor air into the heat exchanger

-the heat removed from the indoor air during the summer can also be used to provide a free source of hot water

Wo audio speakers are placed on a vertical rail. speaker a is placed at head-level while speaker b is place at some variable height, \delta yδy, above speaker a. both speakers receive simultaneous input from a sine-wave generator so the speakers each produce a pure sinusoidal sound wave with a wavelength of 0.531 meters. calculate the lowest height that speaker b can be placed above speaker a to produce a minimum of sound heard by person standing \delta x = 7.86δx=7.86 meters directly in front of speaker a.
