Compute the cycle efficiency

Reference no: EM13339326

A cycle receives 500 Btu of heat at 1000°F and rejects 200 Btu of heat at 200°F. There is work input of 275 Btu and work output of 575 Btu.

a. What is the net work? Is it into or out of the cycle?

b. Compute the cycle efficiency.

c. Does this cycle violate the first or second law of thermodynamics? Is it reversible, irreversible, or impossible?
