A solid body of constant heat capacity 1...

A solid body of constant heat capacity `1J//^@C` is being heated by keeping it contact with reservoirs in two ways:
(i) Sequentially keeping in contact with 2 reservoirs such that each reservoir supplies same amount of heat.
(ii) Sequentially keeping in contact with 8 reservoir such that each reservoir supplies same amount of heat.
In both the cases body is brought from initial temperature `100^C` to final temperature `200^@C`. Entropy change of the body in the tow cases respectively is :

A

ln2, 2ln 2

B

2ln2, 8 ln2

C

ln2, 4ln 2

D

ln2, ln2

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

The entropy change of the body in the two cases is same as entropy is a state function.

A heat engine operates between a cold reservoir at temperature T_2=300K and a hot reservoir at temperature T_1 . It takes 200 J of heat from the hot reservoir and delivers 120 J of heat from the hot reservoir and delivers 120 J of heat to the cold reservoir in a cycle. What could be the minimum temperature of the hot reservoir?

A reversible heat engine A (based on carnot cycle) absorbs heat from a reservoir at 1000 K and rejects heat to a reservoir at T_(2) . A second reversible engine B absorbs, the same amount of heat as rejected by the engine A, from the reservoir at T_(2) and rejects energy to a reservoir at 360 K. If the efficiencies of engines A and B are the same then the temperautre T_(2) is
