Question

300 &#160; calories of heat is given to a heat engine, and it rejects 225 &#160; calories of heat. If source temperature is 227 &#176; C , then the temperature of sink will be _____ C &#8728; .

Aicharya · Accepted Answer

Efficiency of Carnot engine is given by $η = 1 - \frac{Q_{2}}{Q_{1}} = 1 - \frac{T_{2}}{T_{1}}$ .

$\Rightarrow 1 - \frac{225}{300} = 1 - \frac{T_{2}}{500}$

$T_{2} = \frac{5}{3} \times 225 = 375 K$

So, temperature of sink is $T_{2} = 375 - 273 = 102 ° C$
