Thermo Pre Test

This document contains 8 multiple choice questions about heat engines and refrigerators. Question 1 asks about the relationship between the heat input (Qh), heat output (Qc), and work (W) in a heat engine. Question 2 asks how heat can spontaneously go from a cold object to a hot object. Question 3 asks what entropy measures. The remaining questions ask about determining power output, thermal efficiency, fuel consumption rate, and heat rejection rates for various heat engines and refrigerators.
