1 ton = 12,000 BTUs/hr

12,000 BTUs/hr = 4.715 horsepower (12,000*0.0003929)

4.715x5 = 23.575

So a five ton AC unit is 23.575 horsepower

If a wheel weighes 2000 lbs and spins at 5 rpm how many horse power are generated by the weight of the wheel?

If you take any energy off of the wheel, then it won't spin at 5 RPM any more. And if you keep taking energy from it, then pretty soon it'll stop spinning. You can get just as much energy out of it as it took to spin it up to 5 RPM.


How many cubic feet in 5'x6' bale?

To calculate the volume of a bale, you would multiply its length, width, and height. For a bale that is 5 feet by 6 feet in size, if its height is also 5 feet, you would calculate the volume as follows: 5 ft x 6 ft x 5 ft = 150 cubic feet.


How does the photocopier use static electricity?

Inside a photocopier is a drum, which can be charged with static electricity, and photocopier toner, which is a fine black powder. When parts of the drum are charged, the toner is attracted to them. Light is moved across the document to be copied, and where blank paper is found, reflected back onto the drum. This cancels out the charged parts, and the toner is then spread over the drum, sticking to any parts left. (i.e., the black parts on the original document.) Paper passed through the photocopier machine is then charged so that the toner on the drum is attracted to it. The paper is then heated so that it fuses to the paper to form a replica of the original document.


How much does a printer weigh 5 pouds or 20?

It all depends on how big the printer is and what components are in the printer, as well as what kind of ink or toner is used for it.


What is the speed of an object 10m from you for 2 seconds?

To calculate the speed of an object, we need to know the distance it travels and the time it takes. If the object is 10m away from you and travels that distance in 2 seconds, we can calculate its speed using the formula: Speed = Distance/Time. In this case, Speed = 10m/2s = 5 m/s.
