MCQ
A Carnot engine has efficiency $25\%$ . It operates between reservoirs of constant temperature with temperature difference of $80\,K$ . What is the temperature of low temperature reservoir ...... $^oC$
  • A
    $-22$
  • B
    $25$
  • $-33$
  • D
    $33$

Answer

Correct option: C.
$-33$
c
$\eta=25 \% \quad \eta=\frac{\mathrm{T}_{1}-\mathrm{T}_{2}}{\mathrm{T}_{1}} \times 100 \%$

$\therefore \frac{80}{\mathrm{T}_{1}} \times 100=25 \quad \Rightarrow \mathrm{T}_{1}=320 \mathrm{K}$

$\therefore \mathrm{T}_{2}=320-80=240 \mathrm{K}$

$=-33^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$
