The data listed below are claimed for power cycles operating between hot and cold reservoirs at 1000 K and 400 K, respectively. For each case determine whether such a cycle is in keeping with the first and second laws of thermodynamics.
a) Qh=300 kJ, W(cycle)=160kJ, Qc=140 kJ
b) Qh=300 kJ, W(cycle)=180kJ, Qc=120 kJ
c) Qh=300 kJ, W(cycle)=170kJ, Qc=140 kJ
d) Qh=300 kJ, W(cycle)=200kJ, Qc=100 kJ
