To determine the efficiency of a Carnot heat engine, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Efficiency**: The efficiency (η) of a heat engine is defined as the ratio of the work done (W) by the engine to the heat supplied (Q1) to the engine. Mathematically, it is expressed as: \[ \eta = \frac{W}{Q_1} \] ...
