Chapter 24, Problem 14A
What three processes occur in every
Expert Solution & Answer

To determine
Threeprocesses that occur in every heat engine.
Explanation of Solution
Introduction:
As per second law of thermodynamics, the heat transfersfroma body at high temperature spontaneously to a body at lower temperature.Any device that transforms internal energy to mechanical work is called a heat engine.
Three processes that occur in every heat engine are:
- The internal energy increases by absorbing energy from hot reservoir.
- Some of the energy is converted into work.
- The remaining energy is expelled as heat to cold reservoir.
