    The efficiency of a Carnot engine operating with reservoir temperature of \[100{}^\circ C\] and \[-23{}^\circ C\] will be:

    A) \[\frac{373-250}{373}\]

    B) \[\frac{275+250}{373}\]

    C) \[\frac{100+23}{100}\]                  

    D) \[\frac{373-123}{100}\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    Efficiency of Carnot engine is given by \[\eta =1-\frac{{{T}_{2}}}{{{T}_{1}}}=\frac{{{T}_{1}}-{{T}_{2}}}{{{T}_{1}}}\] Here,     \[{{T}_{1}}={{100}^{o}}C=373K\] \[{{T}_{2}}={{23}^{o}}C=250K\] \[\eta =\frac{373-250}{373}\]
