You have access to two sources of energy that can be used to turn a steam turbine in a heat engine (a steam turbine is a device that converts thermal energy into mechanical work):
1. Superheated steam at 400°C and 20 bar
2. Superheated steam at 600°C and 20 bar
Which of these two energy sources can be converted into more mechanical work per unit mass of flowing steam in a heat engine? You may assume that each steam source will leave the turbine at 200°C and 1 bar.
