At full capacity, it consumes 600 W of electricity. (a) How much heat is being dumped out of your window? 8047.2 Btu/hr (b) What is the COP of your AC unit? 2.932 (c) If your apartment is 800 ft2, with 8 ft ceilings, and it is 90 F when you turn on the AC, what will be the temperature after 10 minutes?
