The figure shows the V-T diagram for one cycle of a hypothetical heat engine which uses the ideal gas. Draw the p-V diagram diagram of the system.

The efficiency of a heat engine working between the freezing point and boiling point of water is ____________.
State Kelvin-Planck's statement of the second law of thermodynamics.
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?
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 ______
For a heat engine operating between temperatures t1 °C and t2 °C, its efficiency will be ______.
Heat engine transfers ______.
A heat engine operates between a cold reservoir at temperature T2 = 400 K and a hot reservoir at temperature T1. It takes 300 J of heat from the hot re ervoir and delivers 240 J of heat to the cold reservoir in a cycle. The minimum temperature of the hot reservoir has to be ______ K.
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 ______.
