The drawing (not to scale) shows the way in which the pressure and volume change for an ideal gas that is used as the working substance in a Carnot engine. The gas begins at point a (pressure $=P_{\text {a }}$, volume $=V_{\mathrm{a}}$ ) and expands isothermally at temperature $T_{\mathrm{H}}$ until point $b$ (pressure $=P_{b},$ volume $\left.=V_{b}\right)$ is reached. During this expansion, the input heat of magnitude $\left|Q_{\mathrm{H}}\right|$ enters the gas from the hot reservoir of the engine. Then, from point $\mathrm{b}$
to point $\mathrm{c}$ (pressure $=P_{\mathrm{c}},$ volume $\left.=V_{\mathrm{c}}\right),$ the gas expands adiabatically. Next, the gas is compressed isothermally at temperature $T_{\mathrm{C}}$ from point $\mathrm{c}$ to point $\mathrm{d}$
(pressure $=P_{\mathrm{d}}$, volume $=V_{\mathrm{d}}$ ). During this compression, heat of magnitude $\left|Q_{\mathrm{C}}\right|$ is rejected to the cold reservoir of the engine. Finally, the gas is compressed adiabatically from point d to point a, where the gas is back in its initial state. The overall process a to b to $\mathrm{c}$ to $\mathrm{d}$ is called a Carnot cycle. Prove for this cycle that $\left|Q_{\mathrm{C}}\right| /\left|Q_{\mathrm{H}}\right|=T_{\mathrm{C}} / T_{\mathrm{H}}$

Problem 67

A Carnot engine uses hot and cold reservoirs that have temperatures of 1684 and $842 \mathrm{~K},$ respectively. The input heat for this engine is $\left|Q_{\mathrm{H}}\right| .$ The work delivered by the engine is used to operate a Carnot heat pump. The pump removes heat from the $842-\mathrm{K}$ reservoir and puts it into a hot reservoir at a temperature $T^{\prime}$. The amount of heat removed from the $842-\mathrm{K}$ reservoir is also $\left|Q_{\mathrm{H}}\right| .$ Find the temperature $T$.

Problem 70

Consider three engines that each use $1650 \mathrm{~J}$ of heat from a hot reservoir (temperature $=550 \mathrm{~K}$ ). These three engines reject heat to a cold reservoir (temperature $=330 \mathrm{~K}$ ). Engine I rejects $1120 \mathrm{~J}$ of heat. Engine II rejects $990 \mathrm{~J}$ of heat. Engine III rejects $660 \mathrm{~J}$ of heat. One of the engines operates reversibly, and two operate irreversibly. However, of the two irreversible engines, one violates the second law of thermodynamics and could not exist. For each of the engines determine the total entropy change of the universe, which is the sum of the entropy changes of the hot and cold reservoirs. On the basis of your calculations, identify which engine operates reversibly, which operates irreversibly and could exist, and which operates irreversibly and could not exist.

Problem 72

(a) Find the equilibrium temperature that results when one kilogram of liquid water at $373 \mathrm{~K}$ is added to two kilograms of liquid water at $283 \mathrm{~K}$ in a perfectly insulated container. (b) When heat is added to or removed from a solid or liquid of mass $m$ and specific heat capacity $c,$ the change in entropy can be shown to be $\Delta S=m c \ln \left(T_{f} / T_{i}\right)$ where $T_{\mathrm{i}}$ and $T_{\mathrm{f}}$ are the initial and final Kelvin temperatures. Use this equation to calculate the entropy change for each amount of water. Then combine the two entropy changes algebraically to obtain the total entropy change of the universe. Note that the process is irreversible, so the total entropy change of the universe is greater than zero. Assuming that the coldest reservoir at hand has a temperature of $273 \mathrm{~K},$ determine the amount of energy that becomes unavailable for doing work because of the irreversible process.
