Heat Engines and the Second Law of Thermodynamics
23. The Second Law of Thermodynamics / Heat Engines and the Second Law of Thermodynamics / Problem 5
In the combined system in which a Carnot heat engine powers a Carnot refrigerator, the heat absorbed from the hot reservoir Q1 is 1200 J. The hot reservoir has a temperature of 800 K, while the cold reservoir has a temperature of 500 K as shown in the figure. Determine the heat transfer values Q3 and Q4 for this interconnected arrangement.
