AI Generated Solution

To compare the efficiencies of a Carnot engine working between two different temperature ranges, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Efficiency Formula The efficiency (η) of a Carnot engine is given by the formula: \[ η = 1 - \frac{T_C}{T_H} \] where \(T_C\) is the absolute temperature of the cold reservoir and \(T_H\) is the absolute temperature of the hot reservoir. Temperatures must be in Kelvin. ...
