An ideal heat engine operates in Carnot cycle between 127^ C and 27^ C . It absorbs 5 10^4 cal of heat at higher temperature. Amount of heat converted to work is

Step-by-step solution

For carnot cycle, aligned & T ₁=127^ c , T ₂=27^ c , Q ₁=5 10^4 cal & Efficiency, =1- T ₂ ~T ₁ = W Q ₁ & 1- 27+273 127+273 = W 5 10^4 & ~W = 1 4 5 10^4=1.25 10^4 cal aligned
