A Carnot engine, having an efficiency of η = (1)/(10) as heat...
A Carnot engine, having an efficiency of as heat engine, is used as a refrigerator. If the work done on the system is , the amount of energy absorbed from the reservoir at a lower temperature is:
Options
- A
- B
- C
- D
Correct answer
C.
Step-by-step solution
For engine and refrigeration operating between two same temperature, the relationship between efficiency and coefficient of performance ,
From the principle of the refrigerator, coefficient of performance is given by the ratio of the amount of energy absorbed from the reservoir to work, i.e.,
.
