In a heat engine,the temperature of the source and sink are $500\, K$ and $375\, K$. If the engine consumes $25\times10^5\, J$ per cycle,the work done per cycle is

  • A
    $6.25\times10^5\, J$
  • B
    $3\times10^5\, J$
  • C
    $2.19\times10^5\, J$
  • D
    $4\times10^4\, J$

$A$ Carnot engine absorbs $3 \times 10^{6} \text{ cal}$ of heat from a reservoir at $627^{\circ}C$ and rejects it at $27^{\circ}C$. The work done by the engine is:

State and explain Carnot's theorem.

For an ideal heat engine,the temperature of the source is $127\,^{\circ} C$. In order to have $60\, \%$ efficiency,the temperature of the sink should be $........\,{ }^{\circ} C$. (Round off to the nearest integer)

In the $1^{\text{st}}$ case,a Carnot engine operates between temperatures $300 \, K$ and $100 \, K$. In the $2^{\text{nd}}$ case,as shown in the figure,a combination of two engines is used. The efficiency of this combination (in the $2^{\text{nd}}$ case) will be:

$A$ Carnot engine whose heat sink is at $27^{\circ} C$ has an efficiency of $40 \%$. By how much should its source temperature be changed so as to increase its efficiency to $60 \% (in $K$)?$
