A refrigerator does 26.0 k) of work while moving 117 kJ of thermal energy from inside the refrigerator. (a) Calculate the refrigerator's coefficient of performance. (b) Calculate the energy it transfers to its environment. kJ

A diesel engine has efficiency 0.180. (a) In order for this engine to do 1.24 * 10^4 J of work, how many joules of heat must it take in? (b) How many joules of this heat is discarded?

Heat engines take input energy in the form of heat, use some of that energy to do work, and exhaust the remainder. Similarly, a person can be viewed as a heat engine that takes an input of internal energy, uses some of it to do work, and gives off the rest as heat. Suppose a trained athlete can function as a heat engine with an efficiency of 0.16. (a) What is the magnitude of the internal energy that the athlete uses in order to do 1.7x104 J of work? (b) Determine the magnitude of the heat the athlete gives off.

Energy as heat is input into a steam turbine to convert 13.5 kg of liquid water at 25.0°C to water vapor at 100.0°C every hour. The efficiency of this heat engine is 21.6%. (2.A) What is the power output of the heat engine, in watts?(2.B) The temperature of the heat engine's boiler is 100.0°C, while the exhaust reservoir is maintained at 8.00°C. What is the difference between the theoretical maximum efficiency if the engine, and its actual efficiency? Please express your answer as a percentage.
