A heat engine operates with 70.0 kcal of heat supplied and exhausts 30.0 kcal of heat. How much work did the engine do?

Respuesta :

The work done by the heat engine is 40 kCal.

The given parameters;

  • input heat of the engine, Q₁ = 70 kCal
  • output heat of the engine, Q₂ = 30 kCal

To find:

  • the work done by the heat engine

The work done by the heat engine is the change in the heat energy of the engine;

W = Q₂ - Q₁

Substitute the given parameters and solve work done (W)

W = 70 kCal - 30 kal

W = 40 kCal

Thus, the work done by the heat engine is 40 kCal.
