A perfect carnot engine utilizes an ideal gas the source temperature is 500 K and sink temperature is 375 K. If the engine takes 600 k cal per cycle from the source, calculate
The efficiency of engine

Explanation

To calculate the efficiency of a Carnot engine, we can use the formula for the efficiency of a Carnot engine, which is given by:

\[ \text{Efficiency} = 1 - \frac{T_2}{T_1} \]

where \( T_1 \) is the absolute temperature of the heat source and \( T_2 \) is the absolute temperature of the heat sink.
