The efficiency of Carnot's heat engine is 0.5 when the temperature of the source is T_(1) and that of sink is T_(2). The eficiency of another Carnot's heat engine is also 0.5. The temperatures of source and sink of the second engine are respectively

Answer»

`2T_(1),2T_(2)`
`2T_(1),(T_(2))/(2)`
`T_(1)+5,T_(2)-5`
`T_(1)+10, T_(2)-10`

SOLUTION :Efficiency of Carnot.s heat ENGINE, `eta=1-(T_(2))/(T_(1))`
Efficiency remains same when both `T_(1) and T_(2)` are INCREASED by same factor.
So, correct choice is (a).
