$Assertion :$ The isothermal curves intersect each other at a certain point.
$Reason :$ The isothermal change takes place slowly, so, the isothermal curves have very little slope.

    Consider the efficiency of Carnot's engine is given by $\eta=\frac{\alpha \beta}{\sin \theta} \log _{e} \frac{\beta x}{k T}$, where $\alpha$ and $\beta$ are constants. If $T$ is temperature, $k$ is Boltzman constant, $\theta$ is angular displacement and $x$ has the dimensions of length. Then, choose the incorrect option.
