1. An engine operating on a Carnot cycle extracts 10.0 kJ of heat per cycle from a thermal reservoir at 1000.°C and rejects a smaller amount of heat to a low-temperature thermal reservoir at 10.0°C. Determine the net work produced per cycle of operation.
2. We need to get 1.00 kW of power from a heat engine operating on a Carnot cycle. 3.00 kW of heat is supplied to the engine from a thermal reservoir at 600. K. What is the required temperature of the low-temperature reservoir, and how much heat must be rejected to it?
