Question

An ideal gas is subjected to cyclic process involving four thermodynamic states, the amounts of heat (Q) and work (W) involved in each of these states are
Q1=6000J,
Q2=5500J;
Q3=3000J;
Q4=3500J
W1=2500J;
W2=1000J;
W3=1200J;
W4=xJ.

Solution

The correct option is D 700; 10.5%
From first law of thermodynamics
Q=ΔU+W
or Δ=QW
ΔU1W1=60002500=3500J
ΔU2=Q1W2=5500+1000=4500J
ΔU3=Q3W3=3000+1200=1800J
ΔU4=Q4W4=3500X=0
For cyclic process ΔU=0
350045001800+3500X=0
or X=700J
Efficiency, η=outputinput×100
=W1+W2+W3+W4Q1+Q4×100
=2500100012000+7006000+3500×100
=10009500×100
η=10.5
