In a carnot heat engine 8000J of heat is absorbed from a source at 400 K and 6500 J of heat is rejected to the sink. The temperature of the sink is ………. .

A

325 K

B

100 K

C

200 K

D

273 K

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
a

`"We have, "(T_(2))/(T_(1))=(Q_(2))/(Q_(1))rArr T_(2)=(Q_(2))/(Q_(1))T_(1)=(6500)/(8000)xx400 rArr T_(2)=325K`
