Practicing Success
A Carnot engine having an efficiency of 1/5 as heat engine, is used as a refrigerator. If the work done on the system is 15 J, the amount of energy absorbed from the reservoir at lower temperature is : |
100 J 1 J 90 J 60 J |
60 J |
\(\beta\) = \(\frac{1 - \eta }{\eta}\) \(\eta\) = 1/5 ; \(\Rightarrow \beta\) = 4 = \(\frac{Q}{W}\) \(\Rightarrow \beta\) = 4 = \(\frac{Q}{15}\) Q = 60 J |
