Answer»

Correct answer is (a) Compressor consumes WORK produced by TURBINE

To explain I would SAY: Turbine generates work to drive the shaft. This work is consumed to drive compressor. Compressor doesn’t produce work. Lift is not always same as weight. Compressor is used to increase pressure and temperature.
