a) What is the maximum efficiency of a heat engine that operates
between a high thermal reservoir at 500oC and a low thermal
reservoir at 10oC?
b) Consider a heat engine operating between a high thermal
reservoir at 500oC and a low thermal reservoir at 10oC, and
producing 325 kW of work while rejecting 200 kW of waste heat to
the low thermal reservoir. What is the second law efficiency of
this heat engine?
