    A Carnot engine, having an efficiency of \[\eta =\frac{1}{10}\] as heat engine, is used as a refrigerator. If the work done on the system is 10 J, the amount of energy absorded from the reservoir at lower temperature is                            [NEET  2015]

    A)  100 J  

    B)       99 J

    C)  90 J    

    D)       1 J

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    As,        \[{{Q}_{1}}+W={{Q}_{2}}\]
    Given,   \[\eta =\frac{1}{10}\]
    Now, using \[\eta =1-\frac{{{T}_{1}}}{{{T}_{2}}}\]
    So,       \[\frac{1}{10}=1-\frac{{{T}_{1}}}{{{T}_{2}}}\]
    \[\Rightarrow \]   \[\frac{{{T}_{1}}}{{{T}_{2}}}=\frac{9}{10}\]
    Now       \[\frac{{{Q}_{1}}}{{{Q}_{2}}}=\frac{{{T}_{1}}}{{{T}_{2}}}\]
    \[\Rightarrow \]   \[\frac{{{Q}_{1}}}{{{Q}_{1}}+W}=\frac{9}{10}\]
    \[\Rightarrow \]   \[10{{Q}_{1}}\,=9{{Q}_{1}}\,+9W\]
    \[\Rightarrow \]   \[{{Q}_{1}}=9W=9\times 10=90J\]
