See answer below.

Work Step by Step

An ideal process in the three cases is a reversible and adiabatic (isentropic) process. a) $\eta = \frac{\mbox{actual output}}{\mbox{isentropic output}}$ b) $\eta = \frac{\mbox{isentropic input}}{\mbox{actual input}}$ c) $\eta = \frac{\mbox{actual outlet's k.e.}}{\mbox{isentropic outlet's k.e.}}$
