Chapter 3: Q15E (page 677)

Question:A Carnot engine has an efficiency of 66% and performs\({\bf{2}}{\bf{.5 \times 1}}{{\bf{0}}^{\bf{4}}}\;{\bf{J}}\)of work in each cycle. (a) How much heat does the engine extract from its heat source in each cycle? (b) Suppose the engine exhausts heat at room temperature (20.0掳C). What is the temperature of its heat source?

Short Answer

Expert verified

The heat extracted by engine from heat source is \(38\;{\rm{kJ}}\).

Step by step solution

01

Identification of given data

The efficiency of Carnot engine is\(\eta = 0.66\)

The work done in each cycle is\(W = 2.5 \times {10^4}\;{\rm{J}}\)

The temperature of room is \(T = 20\;^\circ {\rm{C}}\)

02

Conceptual Explanation

The heat extracted by the engine from heat source is calculated by using the formula of thermal efficiency.

03

Determination of heat extracted by engine from heat source

The heat extracted by engine from heat source is given as:

\(\eta = 1 - \frac{W}{Q}\)

Substitute all the values in the above equation.

\(\begin{array}{l}0.66 = \frac{{2.5 \times {{10}^4}\;{\rm{J}}}}{Q}\\Q = 3.78 \times {10^4}\;{\rm{J}}\\Q = \left( {3.78 \times {{10}^4}\;{\rm{J}}} \right)\left( {\frac{{1\;{\rm{kJ}}}}{{{{10}^3}\;{\rm{J}}}}} \right)\\Q \approx 38\;{\rm{kJ}}\end{array}\)

Therefore, the heat extracted by engine from heat source is \(38\;{\rm{kJ}}\).

A cylinder with a piston contains 0.150 mol of nitrogen at 1.80 * 105 Pa and 300 K. The nitrogen may be treated as an ideal gas. The gas is first compressed isobarically to half its original volume. It then expands adiabatically back to its original volume, and finally it is heated isochorically to its original pressure. (a) Show the series of processes in a pV-diagram. (b) Compute the temperatures at the beginning and end of the adiabatic expansion. (c) Compute the minimum p
