Question
1. In an experiment to determine Absolute Zero, a straight line graph was obtained. The equation for the line
was P = .05T + 14. Based on this data the experimental value of Absolute Zero in oC was?
(This was all of the 'data' I was given in the problem. I am not sure if my professor forgot to attach a table with specific values or if you can actually solve the problem based on just the information given?) Could someone please help me out? If a data table is needed in order to solve the problem could someone please just give me an example data set? I would really appreciate it! I am so confused!
2. The only way that a heat engine can have an efficiency of 1, is if the engine
Explanation / Answer
1) at absolute temerature P = 0
T = -14/0.5 = -280 degrees centigrade
2)
n = 1 - T2/T1
when T2 = 0k (sink temperature)
n = 1
