Question 8 POST_UTME_WELLSPRING_UNIVERSITY • 2023 • PHYSICS • objective

A heat engine operates between two reservoirs at temperatures $T_1$ and $T_2$, with $T_1 > T_2$. If the engine absorbs heat $Q_1$ from the high-temperature reservoir and rejects heat $Q_2$ to the low-temperature reservoir, what is the efficiency of the engine?

Answer Options

Correct Answer A. \eta = 1 - \frac{T_2}{T_1}
B. \eta = 1 + \frac{T_2}{T_1}
C. \eta = \frac{T_2}{T_1}
D. \eta = 1 - \frac{T_1}{T_2}
Correct Answer
A
Correct Option:
\eta = 1 - \frac{T_2}{T_1}
