    zero
  • B
    $8.4 \times 10^6 \text{ J}$
  • C
    $4.2 \times 10^6 \text{ J}$

$A$ diatomic ideal gas is used as the working substance in a Carnot engine. During the adiabatic expansion process,if the volume of the gas increases from $V$ to $32V$,what is the efficiency of the engine?

$A$ reversible engine converts one-sixth of the heat supplied into work. When the temperature of the sink is reduced by $62^{\circ} C$, the efficiency of the engine is doubled. The temperatures of the source and sink are
