8-46 A 50-kg iron block and a 20-kg copper block, both initially at 80°C, are dropped into a large lake at 15°C. Thermal equilibrium is established after a while as a result of heat transfer between the blocks and the lake water. Assuming the surroundings to be at 20°C, determine the amount of work that could have been produced if the entire process were executed in a reversible manner. | |
