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?

Refrigerant-134a enters the compressor of a refrigerator as superheated vapor at 0.14 mpa and -10°c at a rate of 0.05 ka/s and leaves at 0.8 mpa and 50°c. the refrigerant is cooied in the condenser to 0.72 mpa and 26'c. it is then throttled to 0.15 mpa. sketch the t-s diagram for the system and evaluate: 6) the rate of heat removai from the refrigerated space (kw), it) the power input to the compressor (kw), ii) the isentropic efficiency of the compressor (%), and iv) the cop of the refrigerator.
