As shown in the figure below, a reversible power cycle receives energy QH by heat transfer from a hot reservoir at TH and rejects energy QC by heat transfer to a cold reservoir at TC. (a) If TH = 1600 K and TC = 400 K, what is the thermal efficiency? (b) If TH = 500°C, TC = 20°C, and Wcycle = 1000 kJ, what are QH and QC, each in kJ? (c) If η = 70% and TC = 40°F, what is TH, in °F? (d) If η = 40% and TH = 1027°C, what is TC, in °C?

As shown in the figure below, a reversible power cycle receives energy QH by heat transfer from a hot reservoir at TH and rejects energy Qby heat transfer to a cold reservoir at TC.


(a) If TH = 1600 K and TC = 400 K, what is the thermal efficiency?

(b) If TH = 500°C, TC = 20°C, and Wcycle = 1000 kJ, what are QH and QC, each in kJ?

(c) If η = 70% and TC = 40°F, what is TH, in °F?

(d) If η = 40% and TH = 1027°C, what is TC, in °C?
