The temperature of sink of Carnot engine...

The temperature of sink of Carnot engine is `27^(@)C`. Efficiency of engine is `25%`. Then temeperature of source is

A

`227^(@)C`

B

`27^(@)C`

C

`327^(@)C`

D

`127^(@)C`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

Efficiency of cannot engine `eta=1-(T_(2))/(T_(1))` and
`(25)/(100)=1-(300)/(T_(1))`
`(300)/(T_(1))=1-(25)/(100)=(100-25)/(100)=(75)/(100)`
`T_(1)=(300xx100)/(75)=400=400-273=127^(@)C`
