Two containers, X and Y, both contain nitrogen gas at a temperature of 30° C and a pressure of 1 atm. The initial volume of each of the containers is V30 = 0.5 liters. The only difference between the two containers is that while container X has a piston that is sealed and cannot move, the gas in container Y is allowed to expand against the surrounding atmosphere. QX is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of the gas in container X by 10° C, and QY is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of the gas in container Y by 10° C. What is the difference between QX and QY? Use 0°C = 273.15 K

Acoal-fired plant generates 600 mw of electric power. the plant uses 4.8 x 10^6 kg of coal each day, and the heat of combustion of coal is 3.3x 10^7 j/kg. the steam that drives the turbines is at a temperature of 300° c, and the exhaust water is at 37° c. (a) what is the overall efficiency of the plant for generating electric power? (b) how much thermal energy is exhausted each day? (c) what is the change in entropy of the universe for this heat engine? (d) using the same heat reservoirs, what is the maximum possible (carnot) efficiency for a heat engine?
