In a heat engine, the temperature of the source and sink are 500 K and 375 K. If the engine consumes `25xx10^5J` per cycle, find(a) the efficiency of the engine, (b) work done per cycle, and (c) heat rejected to the sink per cycle.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A, B, C
(a) `eta=1-(T_2)/(T_1)=1-375/500=0.25=25%`
(b) `W=etaQ_1=0.25xx25xx10^5`
`=6.25xx10^5J`
(c) `Q_2=Q_1-W=(25-6.25)xx10^5`
`=18.75xx10^5J`
