MCQ
A Carnot engine working between $300 \mathrm{~K}$ and $600 \mathrm{~K}$ has work output of $800 \mathrm{~J}$ per cycle. What is amount of heat energy supplied to the engine from source per cycle
  • A
    $1800 \mathrm{~J} / \mathrm{cycle}$
  • B
    $1000 \mathrm{~J} / \mathrm{cycle}$
  • C
    $2000 \mathrm{~J} / \mathrm{cycle}$
  • $1600 \mathrm{~J} / \mathrm{cycle}$

Answer

Correct option: D.
$1600 \mathrm{~J} / \mathrm{cycle}$
$\eta =\frac{T_1-T_2}{T_1}-\frac{W}{Q} \Rightarrow Q=\left(\frac{T_1}{T_1-T_2}\right) W$
$=\frac{600}{(600-300)} \times 800=1600 \mathrm{~J}$

Three wires of copper, iron and nickel are joined to form three junctions as shown in Fig. When the temperature of junction 1 is kept $50^{\circ} C$ with the other two junctions at $0^{\circ} C$, the sensitive galvanometer gives a deflection of 14 divisions. When the temperature of junction 3 is kept $50^{\circ} C$, with the other two junctions at $0^{\circ} C$, the galvanometer gives a deflection of 11 divisions. Then the deflection given by the galvanometer, when temperature of the junction 2 is kept at $50^{\circ} C$, with the other two junctions at $0^{\circ} C$, will be
