A scientist chaims to have developed 60% effcient engine while working between`27^@C and 327^@C`. Does he claim right ?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To determine whether the scientist's claim of a 60% efficient engine is valid, we need to analyze the efficiency of an ideal engine operating between the given temperatures using the Carnot efficiency formula. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Given Temperatures**: - The temperatures are given in degrees Celsius. We need to convert them to Kelvin. - \( T_1 = 327^\circ C \) - \( T_2 = 27^\circ C \) ...
