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?

Consider a double atwood machine constructed as follows: a mass 4m is suspended from a string that passes over a massless pulley on frictionless bearings. the other end of this string supports a second similar pulley, over which passes a second string supporting a mass of 3m at one end and m at the other. using two suitable generalized coordinates, set up the lagrangian and use the lagrange equations to find the acceleration of the mass 4m when the system is released. explain why the top pulley rotates even though it carries equal weights on each side.
