A magician claims that he/she has invented a novel, super-fantastic heat engine. This engine operates between two reservoirs of temperatures 250 K and 750 K, respectively. Please verify and explain if this is possible for any of the following QH (heat received from the hot reservoir), QL (heat rejected to the cool reservoir), and W (mechanical work produced): a. (3a). (3p) QH= 900 kJ, Wmech = 400 kJ, QL = 600 kJ.
b. (3b). (3p) Qu= 900 kJ, W mech = 400 kJ, QL = 500 kJ.
c. (3c). (3p) Qh= 900 kJ, Wmech = 600 kJ, QL = 300 kJ.
d. (3b). (3p) Qh= 900 kJ, Wmech = 800 kJ, QL = 100 kJ.

Amass of m 1.5 kg of steam is contained in a closed rigid container. initially the pressure and temperature of the steam are: p 1.5 mpa and t 240°c (superheated state), respectively. then the temperature drops to t2= 100°c as the result of heat transfer to the surroundings. determine: a) quality of the steam at the end of the process, b) heat transfer with the surroundings. for: p1.5 mpa and t 240°c: enthalpy of superheated vapour is 2900 kj/kg, specific volume of superheated vapour is 0. 1483 m/kg, while for t 100°c: enthalpy of saturated liquid water is 419kj/kg, specific volume of saturated liquid water is 0.001043m/kg, enthalpy of saturated vapour is 2676 kj/kg, specific volume of saturated vapour is 1.672 m/kg and pressure is 0.1 mpa.
