A research group plans to construct an engine that extracts energy from the ocean, using the fact that the water temperature near the surface is greater than the temperature in deep water. If the surface water temperature is 23.0C and the deep-water temperature is 11.0C, what is the maximum efficiency such an engine could have?
The efficiency of a Carnot engine with a cold reservoir at a temperature of 295 K is 22.0%. Assuming the temperature of the hot reservoir remains the same, find the temperature the cold reservoir must have in order for the engine's efficiency to be 24.0%.

Consider a double-paned window consisting of two panes of glass, each with a thickness of 0.500 cm and an area of 0.615 m2, separated by a layer of air with a thickness of 1.60 cm. The temperature on one side of the window is 0.00C; the temperature on the other side is 20.0C. In addition, note that the thermal conductivity of glass is roughly 36 times greater than that of air. (a) Approximate the heat transfer through this window by ignoring the glass. That is, calculate the heat flow per second through the 1.60 cm of air with a temperature difference of 20.0 C. (The exact result for the complete window is 17.7 J/s.) Express your answer with three significant digits.
