In the 2010 world cup, paul the octopus (in a german aquarium) became famous for being correct in all eight of the predictions it made, including predicting spain over germany in a semi-final match. before each game, two containers of food (mussels) were lowered into the octopus's tank. the containers were identical, except for country flags of the opposing teams, one on each container. whichever container paul opened was deemed his predicted winner.1 does paul have psychic powers? in other words, is an 8 for 8 record significantly better than just guessing?

Aheat pump with refrigerant-134a as the working fluid is used to keep a space at 25°c by absorbing heat from geothermal water that enters the evaporator at 500c at a rate of 0.065 kg/s and leaves at 40°c. the refrigerant enters the evaporator at 20°c with a quality of 23 percent and leaves at the inlet pressure as saturated vapor. the refrigerant loses 300 w of heat to the surroundings as it flows through the compressor and the refrigerant leaves the compressor at 1.4 mpa at the same entropy as the inlet. determine: (a) the degrees of subcooling of the refrigerant in the condenser, b)-the mass flow rate of the refrigerant . (c) the heating load and the cop of the pump, and d)-the theoretical minimum power input to the compressor for the same heating load.
