Question

I am having a hard time understanding C-E on this problem. For C, I know that Th>Ti>Tc. Does that mean that since ec= 1-Tc/Th and Tc is the lowest temp of the system, that it is indeed more efficient with both engines?

The other ones, I just don't know where to start.

Any help or explantions would be appreciated!

QCS Suppose you build a two-engine device with the
exhaust energy output from one heat engine supplying the
input energy for a second heat engine. We say that the twO
running in series. Let e and e represent the ef-
engines are
ficiencies of the two engines. (a) The overall efficiency of
the two-engine device is defined as the total work output
divided by the energy put into the first engine by heat. Show
that the overall efficiency e is given by

Expert Solution

Step 1

As per the guidelines, I can solve only 1st three parts. For rest parts please re-post in separate post.
