Answer

(a) $T_C = 200K = -73.1 ^oC $ (b) $N_c = 3.34 \times 10^4 \space cycles$

Work Step by Step

(a) $Q_C = W - Q_H $ $Q_C = 300J - 400J $ $Q_C = -100J$ So $T_C = -T_H(\frac{Q_C}{Q_H})$ $T_C = −(800.15 K)(\frac{−100 J}{400 J})$ $T_C = 200K = -73.1 ^oC $ (b)$ Q = -mL_f $ $ Q = -(10.0 kg) (334 \times 10^3 J/kg) $ $ Q = -3.34 \times 10^6 J$ The number of cycles required is $N_c =\frac{-3.34 \times 10^6 J}{-100J/cycle} $ $N_c = 3.34 \times 10^4 \space cycles$
