Work is the force on the object as it changes a distance. Interestingly, as work is done on an object, potential energy can be stored in that object. For example, if you carry a load up the stairs. Now that load will have potential energy that can be transformed into kinetic energy and so on

A real heat engine operates between temperatures tc and th. during a certain time, an amount qc of heat is released to the cold

tino4ka555 [31]

$q_{c}$ = Heat released to cold reservoir

$q_{h}$ = Heat released to hot reservoir

$W_{max}$ = maximum amount of work

$t_{c}$ = temperature of cold reservoir

$t_{h}$ = temperature of hot reservoir

we know that

$\frac{q_{c}}{q_{h}}=\frac{t_{c}}{t_{h}}$

$q_{h} = (\frac{t_{h}}{t_{c}})q_{c}$ eq-1

maximum work is given as

$W_{max}$ = $q_{h}$ - $q_{c}$

using eq-1

$W_{max}$ = $(\frac{t_{h}}{t_{c}})q_{c}$ - $q_{c}$

Barnard’s Star is a red dwarf. It is located 5.9 light years from Earth. (One light year is the same as 9.46 trillion kilometers

mote1985 [20]

A star is located 5.9 light years from Earth.
We know that : 1 light year = 9.46 trillion kilometers.
We will calculate the distance in trillion kilometers multiplying the number of light years by 9.46:
5.9 * 9.46 = 55.814
Answer: The distance is 55.814 trillion km.
