Question: A reversible air - conditioner ( AC ) removes 1 0 0 0 kJ / s of heat from a room maintained at 2 5

A reversible air-conditioner (AC) removes 1000 kJ/s of heat from a room maintained at
25\deg C. The air-conditioner rejects the heat to the environment at 40\deg C. The air-conditioner is
driven by a reversible heat engine which receives heat from a reservoir at 200\deg C and rejects
the heat to the environment kept at the same temperature of 40\deg C.
(i) Give the schematic diagram for the arrangement. [2]
Determine the following.
(ii) Input power to the AC.[3]
(iii) Heat received by heat engine from the reservoir. [3]
(iv) Efficiency of the heat engine. [
