Homework Answers
a)Irreversible processes are what practically happen around us, reversible are ideal processes infinitely slow such that we can trace back to the same state just by reversing the path of the process. Reversible processes are such that there is absolutely no lose is energy due to friction, or any uncontrollable ways.
The second law introduces the concept of entropy and also the fact that this quantity always increases or remains constant in a spontaneous reaction .It is in the case of irreversible reaction when the change in entropy is zero.(It should be noted that the entropy of the entire system is to be considered ,i.e. the total entropy of the system we consider and the environment the system it interacts with.

Problem 1: Two reversible refrigeration cycles are arranged in series. The first cycle receives energy by heat transfer from a cold reservoir at temperature Tc and rejects energy by heat transfer to a reservoir at an intermediate temperature T greater than Te. The second cycle receives energy by heat transfer from the reservoir at temperature T and rejects energy by heat transfer to a higher-temperature reservoir at TH.

Operating in series are two reversible heat pumps. Heat transfer
gives energy to the first cycle from a cold reservoir at 105 K and
rejects energy by heat transfer to a reservoir at an intermediate
temperature T greater than 105 K. The second cycle receives energy
by heat transfer from the reservoir at T and rejects energy by heat
transfer to a higher-temperature reservoir at 1200 K. If the heat
pump cycles have the same co-efficient of performance, calculate:
