Problem 1: In this problem a heat engine, each cycle, absorbs an amount of energy Qh = 1915 J from a hot reservoir and expels an amount Qc = 1325 J into a cold reservoir. Each cycle lasts for a time of t = 0.34 seconds. Part (a) Find the efficiency of an ideal engine operating between these reservoirs. Remember the efficiency is unit-less, therefore so should your number be as well. Part (b) How much work, in Joules, is done per cycle at this efficiency?
