A lawnmower engine with an efficiency of 0.26 rejects 4700 J of
heat every second. What is the magnitude of the work that the
engine does in one second?
Efficiency of the lawnmower engine = = 0.26
Heat rejected by the lawnmower engine per second = Qc = 4700 J
Work done by the engine in one second = W
Heat input to the lawnmower engine per second = Qh
Qh = W + Qc
(0.26)(W + 4700) = W
0.26W + 1222 = W
0.74W = 1222
W = 1651.35 J
Work done by the engine in one second = 1651.35 J
