Answer

(a) $Q_H = 492 J $ (b) $P = 212 W$ (c) $K = 5.4 $

Work Step by Step

(a) $Q_H = -(\frac{T_H}{T_C}) Q_C$ $Q_H = -(\frac{320K}{270K}) 415 J$ $Q_H = 492 J $ (b)$ |W| = |Q_H| − |Q_C|$ $ |W| = 492 J −415 J $ $ |W| = 77J$ $P = \frac{cycle \times W}{t}$ $P = \frac{165 \times 77J}{60 s}$ $P = 212 W$ (c) $K = \frac{|Q_C|}{|W|}$ $K = \frac{415 J}{77J|}$ $K = 5.4 $
