This question has Statement $1$ and Statement $2.$ Of the four choices given after the Statements, choose the one that best describes the two Statements.

Statement $1 :$ An inventor claims to have constructed an engine that has an efficiency of $30\%$ when operated between the boiling and freezing points of water. This is not possible.

Statement $2:$ The efficiency of a real engine is always less than the efficiency of a Carnot engine operating between the same two temperatures.

Q: This question has Statement $1$ and Statement $2.$ Of the four choices given after the Statements, choose the one that best describes the two Statements. Statement $1 :$ An inventor claims to have constructed an engine that has an efficiency of $30\%$ when operated between the boiling and freezing points of water. This is not possible. Statement $2:$ The efficiency of a real engine is always less than the efficiency of a Carnot engine operating between the same two temperatures.

d According to Carnot's theorem $-$ no heat engine working between two given temperatures of source and sink can be more efficient than a perfectly reversible engine i.e. Carnot engine working between the same two temperatures. Efficiency of Carnot's engine, $n=1-\frac{T_{2}}{T_{1}}$ $ where, T_{1}= temperature \,of\, source $ $T_{2}= temperature of \sin k$
