Question
Consider the previous problem and additionally determine the heat transfer. Show that the process does not violate the second law.
Step 1
The system is initially at a temperature of 100°C and the surroundings are at a temperature of 20°C. The heat transfer from the system to the surroundings can be calculated using the formula: Q = m * c * ΔT Where: Q = heat transfer m = mass of the system c = Show more…

Show that the transfer of heat from an object of higher temperature to one of lower temperature, but not the reverse process, obeys the second law of thermodynamics.
Calculate the heat transfer during the process described in the previous problem.
Consider a heat engine and heat pump connected as shown in Fig. P5.41. Assume that $T_{H 1}=T_{H 2}>$ $T_{\mathrm{amb}}$ and determine for each of the three cases if the setup satisfies the first law and/or violates the second law.
