Suppose 2.00 molof a diatomic gas is taken reversibly around the cycle shown in the T-S diagram of Fig. 20-35, whereand. The molecules do not rotate or oscillate. What is the energy transferred as heat Qfor (a) path, (b) path, and (c) the full cycle? (d) What is the worxk Wfor the isothermal process? The volume V1 in state 1 is. What is the volume in (e) State 2 and (f) state 3? What is the changefor (g) path, (h) path, and (i) the full cycle? (Hint:(h) can be done with one or two lines of calculation using Module 19-7 or with a page of calculation using Module 19-9.) (j) What is the work Wfor the adiabatic process?
A three-step cycle is undergone reversibly by 4.00 mol. of an ideal gas: (1) an adiabatic expansion that gives the gas 20times its initial volume, (2) a constant-volume process, (3) an isothermal compression back to the initial state of the gas. We do not know whether the gas is monatomic or diatomic; if it is diatomic, we do not know whether the molecules are rotating or oscillating. What are the entropy changes for (a) the cycle, (b) process 1, (c) process 3, and (d) process 2?
Suppose that a deep shaft were drilled in Earth’s crust near one of the poles, where the surface temperature is , to a depth where the temperature is . (a) What is the theoretical limit to the efficiency of an engine operating between these temperatures? (b) If all the energy released as heat into the low-temperature reservoir were used to melt ice that was initially at , at what rate could liquid water at be produced by a 100 MW power plant (treat it as an engine)? The specific heat of ice is ; water’s heat of fusion is . (Note that the engine can operate only between and in this case. Energy exhausted atcannot warm anything above .)
An apparatus that liquefies helium is in a room maintained at 300 K. If the helium in the apparatus is at 4.0 K, what is the minimum ratio, whereis the energy delivered as heat to the room andis the energy removed as heat from the helium?
