... M98T.1—Carnot Engine Problem A Carnot engine uses n moles of an ideal gas as its working substance. The absolute temperatures of its hot and cold reservoirs are denoted by T1 and T2 , respectively. The net work performed by the engine in one cycle of operation is W. The specific heats of the gas may ...
