Test: Second Law of Thermodynamics - 2 - Question 3

The four processes of the Carnot cycle are

Detailed Solution for Test: Second Law of Thermodynamics - 2 - Question 3


Hence Carnot cycle consists of two reversible isothermal and two isentropic process.

Test: Second Law of Thermodynamics - 2 - Question 4

Perpetual motion machine of second kind violates the

Detailed Solution for Test: Second Law of Thermodynamics - 2 - Question 4

Perpetual motion machine of the second kind (PMM2): A fictitious machine which produces net work in a complete cycle by exchanging heat with only one reservoir is called the PMM2.

It violates the Kelvin plank statement.


The heat engine will produce net work in a complete cycle by exchanging heat with only single reservoir thus violating the Kelvin-Piank statement.

Test: Second Law of Thermodynamics - 2 - Question 5

The efficiency of a thermodynamic cycle cannot be infinite since it

Test: Second Law of Thermodynamics - 2 - Question 6

 Second law of thermodynamics defines

Test: Second Law of Thermodynamics - 2 - Question 7

Kelvin-plank law deals with

Detailed Solution for Test: Second Law of Thermodynamics - 2 - Question 7

Kelvin-Plank gives the concept of heat engine hence, it is conversion of heat into work.

Test: Second Law of Thermodynamics - 2 - Question 8

The efficiency of the Carnot cycle may be increased by

Test: Second Law of Thermodynamics - 2 - Question 9

In a Carnot engine, when working substance gives heat to the sink

Detailed Solution for Test: Second Law of Thermodynamics - 2 - Question 9

In Carnot engine, source and sink is thermal energy reservoir hence as heat is rejected or extracted, temperature does not change.

Test: Second Law of Thermodynamics - 2 - Question 10

Which of the following represents Carnot cycle
