The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to analyze the cyclic process in thermodynamics where a system absorbs heat \( Q_1 \), gives out heat \( Q_2 \), and does work \( W \). We are also given the efficiency \( \eta \) of the process. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the First Law of Thermodynamics**: The first law of thermodynamics states that the change in internal energy of a system is equal to the heat added to the system minus the work done by the system. In a cyclic process, the internal energy returns to its initial state, so the change in internal energy is zero. \[ \Delta U = Q - W = 0 \implies Q = W \] Here, \( Q \) is the net heat added to the system. 2. **Relating Heat and Work**: Since the system absorbs \( Q_1 \) and gives out \( Q_2 \), the work done \( W \) can be expressed as: \[ W = Q_1 - Q_2 \] This equation shows that the work done by the system is equal to the heat absorbed minus the heat rejected. 3. **Calculating Efficiency**: The efficiency \( \eta \) of a cyclic process is defined as the ratio of the work done \( W \) to the heat input \( Q_1 \): \[ \eta = \frac{W}{Q_1} \] Substituting the expression for \( W \): \[ \eta = \frac{Q_1 - Q_2}{Q_1} \] This can be rearranged to: \[ \eta = 1 - \frac{Q_2}{Q_1} \] 4. **Identifying Correct Relations**: Now, we can summarize the relationships derived: - Work done: \( W = Q_1 - Q_2 \) - Efficiency: \( \eta = \frac{W}{Q_1} \) or \( \eta = 1 - \frac{Q_2}{Q_1} \) ### Conclusion: From the analysis: - The correct relations are: - **A**: \( W = Q_1 - Q_2 \) (Correct) - **B**: \( \eta = \frac{W}{Q_1} \) (Correct) - **C**: \( \eta = \frac{Q_2}{Q_1} \) (Incorrect) - **D**: \( \eta = 1 - \frac{Q_2}{Q_1} \) (Correct) Thus, options A, B, and D are correct.
