A) The nebular theory predicts that jovian planets should only form at much larger distances from their stars. B) The surface temperatures of these planets seemed inexplicably high. C) They had expected to detect small, terrestrial planets before large, jovian planets. D) The orbits of these planets did not follow Kepler's laws of planetary motion.

An ideal Carnot engine operates between reservoirs having temperatures of 125°C and -20°C. Each cycle the heat expelled by this engine is used to melt 30.0 g of ice at 0.00°C

The heat of fusion of water is 3.34 × 105 J/kg and the heat of vaporization of water is 2.25 × 106 J/kg. (a) How much work does this engine do each cycle? (b) How much heat per cycle does this engine absorb at the hot reservoir?
