MCQ
A Carnot’s engine is made to work between $200°C$ and $0°C$ first and then between $0°C$ and $-200°C.$ The ratio of efficiencies of the engine in the two cases is
- A$1.73 : 1$
- ✓$1:1.73$
- C$1:1$
- D$1:2$
✓
Answer
Correct option: B.
$1:1.73$
b
(b) In first case ${\eta _1} = 1 - \frac{{{T_2}}}{{{T_1}}} = 1 - \frac{{(273 + 0)}}{{(273 + 200)}} = \frac{{200}}{{473}}$
In second case ${\eta _2} = 1 - \frac{{(273 - 200)}}{{(273 + 0)}} = \frac{{200}}{{273}}$
==> $\frac{{{\eta _1}}}{{{\eta _2}}} = \frac{1}{{\left( {\frac{{473}}{{273}}} \right)}} = 1:1.73$
(b) In first case ${\eta _1} = 1 - \frac{{{T_2}}}{{{T_1}}} = 1 - \frac{{(273 + 0)}}{{(273 + 200)}} = \frac{{200}}{{473}}$
In second case ${\eta _2} = 1 - \frac{{(273 - 200)}}{{(273 + 0)}} = \frac{{200}}{{273}}$
==> $\frac{{{\eta _1}}}{{{\eta _2}}} = \frac{1}{{\left( {\frac{{473}}{{273}}} \right)}} = 1:1.73$
