The work done during the isothermal processes is WC (between points 1 and 2) and WH (between points 3 and 4). Find an expression for the fraction WC / WH in terms of TC and TH. c. Apply the First Law of Thermodynamics to the isothermal processes to show that the efficiency of this cycle is (please see the image with the corresponding formula for question c) d.
