In a Carnot engine,the temperature of the sink is $27 \, ^\circ C$ and the temperature of the source is $927 \, ^\circ C$. If the work done by the engine to reject heat from the source to the sink is $12.6 \times 10^{6} \, J$,what is the heat absorbed from the source?

  • A
    $16.8 \times 10^{6} \, J$
  • B
    $4 \times 10^{6} \, J$
  • C
    $7.6 \times 10^{6} \, J$
  • D
    $4.2 \times 10^{6} \, J$
