Problems
Problem 2.1:
Reproduce a drawing of a Carnot cycle.
[Solution]
Problem 2.2:
On your Carnot cycle drawing, shade the region that represents the heat
consumed by the system at the higher temperature.
[Solution]
Problem 2.3:
On the same drawing, now shade in a distinct manner the region that
represents the heat that is unable to be converted to work.
[Solution]
Problem 2.4:
Suppose we have a heat engine in which σH - σL = N0, where
N0 is Avogadro's number. Suppose further that Tl = 300K and
Th = 600K. Give the work done per cycle.
[Solution]
