Heat Engine Cycles: Understanding Reversible Changes
Alright I figured out this question ... Its a simple manipulation of the dQ = T ds equation for each Temperature. Then you can equate them by using S1 = -S2 and finally integrate. The last part of this question ask what the Tf would be if the process was irreversible. I think this would...- nokure

Heat Engine Cycles: Understanding Reversible Changes
Homework Statement Taken from adkins Introduction to thermal physics A reversible heat engine is operated between two bodies, one of heat capacity C1 initially at temperature T1 and the other of heat capacity C2 initially at temperature T2. As the engine operates, the warmer body gradually...- nokure

Electrostatic Potential Energy of a Conducting Sphere
i have a question similar to this. I was wondering if the question was rephrased to say that the sphere has a charge density, p, instead of a charge q how you would answer it? Would simply become a Q/(volume of sphere) instead of q in your integral equation with everything else remaining...- nokure
