Problem

A heat engine absorbs

5.0\times10^{3}\,\text{J}

of heat from the hot reservoir and rejects

3.5\times10^{3}\,\text{J}

to the cold reservoir in each cycle. Calculate the work done per cycle. a)

5.0\times10^{3}\,\text{J}

1.5\times10^{3}\,\text{J}

8.5\times10^{3}\,\text{J}

3.5\times10^{3}\,\text{J}
