(A) the net heat energy absorbed during a cyclic process (the difference between heat flowing into the system and heat leaving the system) is the work. If we regard the atmosphere as a heat engine, what is the work being done by the atmosphere? That is, what phenomenon or phenomena are a realization of the work being done by the atmosphere? (B) Of all possible heat engines, the Carnot cycle has the maximum efficiency between any two operating temperatures (think of these temperatures as the maximum and minimum temperatures encountered during the cycle). Estimate the Carnot efficiency of Earth's atmosphere. [Hint: Think about the temperature variation with latitude.] (C) Do you think the efficiency of the real atmosphere would be "close" or "far" from the Carnot efficiency? Please explain your answer.
True or false Heat is transferred to a system by either a cheap commercially available air-sourced heat pump with coefficient of performance of just 1.5, or an expensive 100% efficient electrical resistance heater. The loss of Carnot Work Potential (Exergy destruction, or T0Sloss term) is minimum when heat is added by the cheap commercial heat pump.

An air conditioner is a device used to cool the inside of a home. It is, in essence, a refrigerator in which mechanical work is done and heat removed from the (cooler) inside and rejected to the (warmer) outside. A home air conditioner operating on a reversible Carnot cycle between the inside, absolute temperature T2, and the outside, absolute tempera- ture T1 > T2, consumes P joules/sec from the power lines when operating continuously. (a) In one second, the air conditioner absorbs Q2 joules from the house and rejects Q1 joules outdoors. Develop a formula for the efficiency ratio Q2/P in terms of T1 and T2. (b) Heat leakage into the house follows Newton's law Q = A(T, – T2). Develop a formula for T, in terms of T1, P, and A for continuous operation of the air conditioner under constant outside temperature T and uniform (in space) inside temperature T2. (c) The air conditioner is controlled by the usual on-off thermostat and it is observed that when the thermostat set at 20°C and an…
