Chapter 18 Q
When a system does work without adding heat, the temperature of the system
decreases.
As a parcel of air at high altitude sinks to a lower elevation with no heat input or output, its temperature
increases.
The lowest temperature possible in nature is
-273 degrees C.
If a 5°C piece of iron is heated until it has twice as much internal energy, its temperature will be
283°C.
The change in internal energy of adding 100 joules to a system that does 60 joules of work is
40 J.
The ideal efficiency for a heat engine operating between the temperatures of 227°C and 27°C is
40%.
A heat engine would have 100% efficiency if its low-temperature reservoir were
at absolute zero.
A quantity of water has more entropy when it is
boiling.
Harry places a new air conditioner in the middle of his hot room, which when operating
further warms the room.
When an ideal gas is subjected to an adiabatic process
