Two rods of the same length and diameter are made from different materials. The rods are to connect two regions of different temperature so that energy will transfer through the rods by heat. They can be connected in series, as in Figure 11.7a (page 363), or in parallel, as in Figure 11.7b. In which case is the rate of energy transfer by heat larger? (a) When the rods are in series. (b) When the rods are in parallel. (c) The rate is the same in both cases.
A sample of an ideal gas goes through the process shown in Figure P17.26. From A to B, the process is adiabatic; from B to C, it is isobaric with 100 kJ of energy entering the system by heat; from C to D, the process is isothermal; and from D to A, it is isobaric with 150 kJ of energy leaving the system by heat.
