Can scientists construct an engine that does nothing but convert heat to useful work?
Yes - with certain limitations. You can convert part of the heat - not all of the heat - into useful work, if there is a heat difference. The remainder of the heat (from the hot container) gets passed to the cold container. You CANNOT convert ALL the heat into useful work, nor can you convert heat into useful work if there is no heat difference. All this would contradict the Second Law of Thermodynamics, and it is very unlikely that this law will ever be violated.
True or false A heat engine is a device that converts heat into work?
False its not possible to convert all heat into work as some of its being used as energy APEX
Why 100 percent heat not convert in mechanical work in engine?
No engine is 100% efficient: there is always some loss of energy between input and output.
A heat engine is a device that converts work into heat?
No, a heat engine is not a device that converts work into heat. It is the opposite, which means it is a device that converts heat into work.
Which term describes a machine that converts heat into work?
Heat Engine Heat Engine
