We’ve seen that the area under a pV graph is the work done in an ideal-gas process. If the process follows a closed curve, the work is the area inside the curve. The graph as shown the gauge pressure in the lungs versus the volume of gas in the lungs for a person who is taking rapid, deep breaths. During one complete breath, the pressure-versus-volume data trace out the curve shown, in the direction of the arrows. The energy expended in one complete breath is represented by the shaded area inside the curve. If you graph pressure-versus-volume data for normal breathing, the upper and lower lines are much closer together and the volume range is much smaller.
For one cycle of normal breathing, we expect the energy expended to be for the cycle illustrated in the figure.A. more than B. the same as C. less than

- The device shown in Figure CQ22.7, called a thermoelectric converter, uses a series of semiconductor cells to transform internal energy to electric potential energy, which we will study in Chapter 25. In the photograph on the left, both legs of the device are at the same temperature and no electric potential energy is produced. When one leg is at a higher temperature than the other as shown in the photograph on the right, however, electric potential energy is produced as the device extracts energy from the hot reservoir and drives a small electric motor. (a) Why is the difference in temperature necessary to produce electric potential energy in this demonstration? (b) In what sense does this intriguing experiment demonstrate the second law of thermodynamics?arrow_forwardAn electric generator at a power plant produces energy by passing superheated steam from a high temperature container (reservoir), through a pipe connected to a series of fans, and then into a low temperature reservoir. As the steam passes across the blades of the fans some of the heat energy of the steam is transformed into mechanical energy, which turns the fans which in turn are connected to a generator, which in turn converts the mechanical energy into electrical energy. If the high temperature steam has a temperature of 376 K and the low temperature reservoir has a temperature of 101.9 K, what is the Carnot efficiency of this process?arrow_forwardConverting sunlight to electricity with solar cells has an efficiency of 15%. It's possible to achieve a higher efficiency (though currently at higher cost) by using concentrated sunlight as the hot reservoir of a heat engine. Each dish in (Figure 1) concentrates sunlight on one side of a heat engine, producing a hot-reservoir temperature of 560 ∘C. The cold reservoir, ambient air, is approximately 30 ∘C. The actual working efficiency of this device is 30%. What is the theoretical maximum efficiency?arrow_forward

This work can noticeably warm up the food. Suppose the blender motor runs at a power of 250 W for 40 s. During this time, 2000 J of heat flow from the now-warmer food to its cooler surroundings.

- A heat pump used for heating shown in Figure P18.25 is essentially an air conditioner installed backward. It extracts energy from colder air outside and deposits it in a warmer room. Suppose the ratio of the actual energy entering the room to the work done by the devices motor is 10.0% of the theoretical maximum ratio. Determine the energy entering the room per joule of work done by the motor given that the inside temperature is 20.0C and the outside temperature is 5.00C.

The system is to operate between 20.0C (surface water temperature) and 5.00C (water temperature at a depth of about 1 km). (a) What is the maximum efficiency of such a system? (b) If the useful power output of the plant is 75.0 MW, how much energy is absorbed per hour? (c) In view of your answer to part (a), do you think such a system is worthwhile (considering that there is no charge for fuel)?arrow_forwardAn engine absorbs three times as much heat as it discharges. The work done by the engine per cycle is 50 J. Calculate (a) the efficiency of the engine, (b) the heat absorbed per cycle, and (c) the heat discharged per cycle.arrow_forward
