Textbook Question
Textbook Question(III) A general theorem states that the amount of energy that becomes unavailable to do useful work in any process is equal to T_L∆S , where T_L is the lowest temperature available and ∆S is the total change in entropy during the process. Show that this is valid in the specific cases of:
