Answer:
The correct answer is 0.004382 kW/K, the second law is a=satisfied and established because it is a positive value.
Explanation:
Solution
From the question given we recall that,
The transferred heat rate is = 2kW
A reservoir cold at = 300K
The next step is to find the rate at which the entropy of the two reservoirs changes is kW/K
Given that:
Δs = Q/T This is the entropy formula,
Thus
Δs₁ = 2/ 300 = 0.006667 kW/K
Δs₂ = 2 / 875 =0.002285
Therefore,
Δs = 0.006667 - 0.002285
= 0.004382 kW/K
Yes, the second law is satisfied, because it is seen as positive.
