Answer any three question

1)Shahid made an engine and claimed it as an reversible carnot engine. This engine converts 1/4th of its
absorbed heat into work and rejects rest of heat (300J) to a

sink, Shahid measured the temperature of the source & the sink

as 350K and 310K respectively,

a. Write down the 2nd law of thermodynamics.

b. Why is the conduction of heat irreversible— explain it.

ec. Calculate the temperature of the heat source.

d. This announcement isn't correct in real case. What kind

of change should be made to convert the engine to a

reversible one— explain it. through mathematical

analysis.

2)The working substance of a heat engine absorbs

an amount of 1200] heat from the source at temperature of

600K & rejects an amount of 600) heat to the sink at

temperature of 300K.

a. What is a reversible process? !

b. Explain the "Zeroth law" of thermodynamics. 2

c. Calculate the efficiency of the heat engine. 3

d. Whether the heat engine is reversible or irreversible,

decide it by mathematical analysis. 4

3)A heat engine absorbs an amount of 1260j heat
from the source at temperature of 147°C and rejects an amount

of 930J heat to the sink at temperature of 37°C.

a. What is an irreversible process? 1

b. "The efficiency of a carnot engine increases if the temp

of the sink decreases." Explain it. 2

c, Calculate the efficiency of the engine. 3

d. Whether the engine is reversible or irreversible?

Explain it. 4

4)Coffee in a coffee pot is shaked strongly by a

stirrer. As a result the volume of the coffee is increased by an

amount of 50 cm’. An amount of 40J heat was exerted from the

coffee by the conduction of heat and by the correction of heat

at the same time. [Atmospheric pressure, Pa = 1 x 10° Nm]

a. What is a thermodynamic system? 1

b. The efficiency of a heat engine can never be 100%—

explain it. 2

c. How much work is done on the coffee? 3

d. Does it support the first law of thermodynamics?—

Verify it & explain it. 4
