Q 1 :    

Water of mass m gram is slowly heated to increase the temperature from T1 to T2. The change in entropy of the water, given specific heat of water is 1 Jkg1 K1, is          [2025]

  • zero

     

  • m(T2T1)

     

  • m ln (T1T2)

     

  • m ln (T2T1)

     

(4)

dQ = msdT

dS=dQT=msdTT

S=msdTT=ms ln TfTi

S=ms ln T2T1 as s = 1



Q 2 :    

A Carnot engine (E) is working between two temperatures 473 K and 273 K. In a new system two engines - engine E1 works between 473 K to 373 K and engine E2 works between 373 K to 273 K. If η12η1 and η2 are the efficiencies of the engines E, E1 and E2, respectively, then          [2025]

  • η12<η1+η2

     

  • η12=η1η2

     

  • η12=η1+η2

     

  • η12η1+η2
