- As a gasoline engine is running, an amount of gasoline containing 15,200 J of chemical potential energy is burned in 1 s. During that second, the engine does 3,800 J of work. (a) What is the engine's efficiency (in percent)? (b) The burning gasoline has a temperature of about 5,000°F (3,000 K). The waste heat from the engine flows into air at about 86°F (303 K).

A SEER rating is the ratio of heat pumped to energy input, similar to a COP but using English units, so a higher SEER rating means a more efficient model. You can determine the COP of an air conditioner bydividing the SEER rating by 3.4. For typical inside and outsidetemperatures when you’d be using air conditioning, estimate the theoretical maximum SEER rating of an air conditioner. (New air conditioners must have a SEER rating that exceeds 13, quite a bit less than the theoretical maximum, but there are practical issues that reduce efficiency.)arrow_forward
