A carnot engine has the same efficiency ...

A carnot engine has the same efficiency (i) between 100 K and 500 K and (ii) between T K and 900 K. Calculate the temperature of the sink.

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To solve the problem, we will use the formula for the efficiency of a Carnot engine, which is given by: \[ \eta = 1 - \frac{T_{\text{sink}}}{T_{\text{source}}} \] where \( T_{\text{sink}} \) is the temperature of the sink and \( T_{\text{source}} \) is the temperature of the source. ...
