Find if increase in entropy principle has been satisfied


One hundred Btu of heat are transferred directly from a thermal-energy reservoir at 1200 oR to one at 600 oR. Calculate the entropy change of the two reservoirs and determine if the increase in entropy principle has been satisfied. Then assume that the heat is transferred directly from the cold reservoir to the hot reservoir contrary to the Clausius statement of the second law. Prove that this also violates the increase in entropy principle.
