Explain the second law of thermodynamics in terms of entropy.
Suppose a person wants to increase the efficiency of the reversible heat engine that is operating between 100°C and 300°C. He had two ways to increase efficiency.
- By decreasing the cold reservoir temperature from 100°C to 50°C and keeping the hot reservoir temperature constant
- by increasing the temperature of the hot reservoir from 300°C to 350°C by keeping the cold reservoir temperature constant.
Which is the suitable method?
A Carnot engine whose efficiency is 45% takes heat from a source maintained at a temperature of 327°C. To have an engine of efficiency of 60% what must be the intake temperature for the same exhaust (sink) temperature?
10 One mole of a van der Waals' gas obeying the equation `("P" + "a"/"V"^2)`(V - b) = RT undergoes the quasi-static cyclic process which is shown in the P-V diagram. The net heat absorbed by the gas in this process is ______
Let η1 is the efficiency of an engine at T1 = 447°C and T2 = 147°C while η2, is the efficiency at T1 = 947°C and T2 = 47°C. The ratio `eta_1/eta_2` will be ______.
The thermal efficiency of a heat engine is 25%. If in one cycle the heat absorbed from the hot reservoir is 50000 J, what is the heat rejected to the cold reservoir in one cycle?
