    An ideal gas heat engine operates in a Carnot  cycle between \[227{{\,}^{o}}C\]and \[127{{\,}^{o}}C.\] It absorbs \[6.0\times {{10}^{4}}\,cal\]at the higher temperature. The amount of heat converted into work is equal to

    A) \[4.8\times {{10}^{4}}cal\]

    B)  \[3.5\times {{10}^{4}}cal\]

    C)  \[1.6\times {{10}^{4}}cal\]

    D)  \[1.2\times {{10}^{4}}cal\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

     \[\eta =\frac{W}{Q}=1-\frac{{{T}_{2}}}{{{T}_{1}}}\] Work, \[W=\frac{{{T}_{1}}-{{T}_{2}}}{{{T}_{1}}}{{Q}_{1}}\] \[W=\frac{(227+273)-(127+273)}{(227+273)}\times 6.0\times {{10}^{4}}\text{cal}\] \[=\frac{100}{500}\times 6.0\times {{10}^{4}}\text{cal}\] \[=1.2\times {{10}^{4}}\text{cal}\]
