What is the temperature of the exiting gas? B) What is the pressure of the exiting gas if the compressor is reversible? C) The work is supplied by a heat engine with an efficiency of 15%. What rate of heat input is required to run the heat engine?

An ideal gas with a heat capacity of CV* = 4R enters an adiabatic, steady-state compressor at T=300 K and P=1 bar with a flow rate of 10 moles per second. The rate at which work is added to the compressor is 40 kilojoules per second.
