1.	An ideal gas heat engine operates in a carnot cycle between 227^@ C and 127^@ C. It absorbs 6 kcal at the higher temperature. The amount of heat (in kcal) converted into work is equal to _____
Answer» 1.2 4.8 3.5 1.6 Solution :Efficiency =`(T_1-T_2)/T_1` `T_1`=227+273=500 K `T_2`=127+273 = 400 K `ETA=(500-400)/500=1/5` `THEREFORE` Output work = `(eta)xx` INPUT heat = `1/5xx6` =1.2 kcal
