Homework Statement
A Carnot heat engine uses a hot reservoir consisting of a large amount of boiling water and a cold reservoir consisting of a large tub of ice and water. In 5 minutes of operation of the engine, the heat rejected by the engine melts a mass of ice equal to 3.30×10^-2 kg.
Throughout this problem use L_f =3.34 * 10^5 j/kg for the heat of fusion for water.
During this time, how much work W is performed by the engine?
Homework Equations
Q= mL
The Attempt at a Solution
Q= mL
= 3.30*10^-2 * 3.34*10^5
= 11022 J
and then i am stuck.. what should i do
??
