A Carnot engine operates between 200^(@)C and 20^(@)C . Its maximum possible efficiency is:

A Carnot's engine is made to work between 200^(@)C and 0^(@)C first and then between 0^(@)C and -200^(@)C . The ratio of efficiencies of the engine in the two cases is

What per cent T_(1) is of T_(2) for a heat engine whose efficiency is 10%

In an isochoric process if T_(1)=27^(@)C and T_(2)=127^(@)C then P_(1)//P_(2) will be equal to

The efficiency of an engine is 1/2. When T_(2) is reduced by 100^(@)C , the efficiency becomes 2/3. Find T_(1)

The temperatures T_(1) and T(2) of two heat reservoirs in an ideal carnot engine are 1500^(@)C and 500^(@)C . Which of these (a) increasing T_(1) by 100^(@)C or (b) decreasing T_(2) by 100^(@)C would result in greater improvement of the efficiency of the engine?

What percentage T_(1) is of T_(2) for a 10% efficiency of a heat engine?
