MCQ
Efficiency of a Carnot engine is large when
- ✓$T _{ H }$ is large
- B$T_C$ is low
- C$T _{ H }- T _{ C }$ is large
- D$T _{ H }- T _{ C }$ is small
✓
Answer
Correct option: A.
$T _{ H }$ is large
$T _{ H }$ is large
$T_C$ is low
$T _{ H }- T _{ C }$ is large
$\left[\eta=\frac{T_{ H }-T_{ c }}{T_{ H }}=1-\frac{T_{ c }}{T_{ H }}\right]$
$T_C$ is low
$T _{ H }- T _{ C }$ is large
$\left[\eta=\frac{T_{ H }-T_{ c }}{T_{ H }}=1-\frac{T_{ c }}{T_{ H }}\right]$
