Question

A. Consider a heat engine that draws 55 J of heat from a hot reservoir and discards 35 J of heat to a cold reservoir. If the cycle repeats itself every 2 s, what is the total amount of work that can be obtained from the heat engine in 8 s?

B, What is the coefficient of performance of a refrigerator that discards 87 J of heat to a hot reservoir and draws 68 J of heat from a cold reservoir?

C. The exhaust fan of a CPU usually works at an angular speed of 125 rad/s. When the CPU overheats, the exhaust fan can accelerate to an angular speed of 275 rad/s in 2.00 s. What is the fan’s average angular acceleration during this interval?

Definition Definition Rate of change of angular velocity. Angular acceleration indicates how fast the angular velocity changes over time. It is a vector quantity and has both magnitude and direction. Magnitude is represented by the length of the vector and direction is represented by the right-hand thumb rule. An angular acceleration vector will be always perpendicular to the plane of rotation. Angular acceleration is generally denoted by the Greek letter α and its SI unit is rad/s 2 .
