Question

A heat engine is found to have an efficiency of 0.33. If it does 190 J of work per cycle, how much heat does the engine absorb and discharge each cycle?

Hint

 

  1. Heat absorbed: QH=QH= JJ
  2. Heat discharged: QL=QL= j
  3. A heat engine with an efficiency of 0.21 absorbs 400 J of heat per cycle.

    Hint

     

    1. How much work does it perform per cycle? W=W= JJ
    2. How much heat does it discharge per cycle? QL=QL= J
A heat engine with an efficiency of 0.21 absorbs 400 J of heat per cycle.
Hint
a. How much work does it perform per cycle? W
J
b. How much heat does it discharge per cycle? QL
