Question: Carnot Engine operating between the two reservoirs at kept at temperatures of 2 7 C and 2 2 7 C respectively is using 4 .

Carnot Engine operating between the two reservoirs at kept at temperatures of 27 C and 227C respectively is using 4.81mole of ideal gas. During the operation the gas expand isothermally from the initial state of Va=40.0 l to Vb=120.0 l, from which it expands adiabatically to 160.0 l. The isothermal compression takes the gas to the volume of 150.0 l followed by an adiabatic compression to the initial volume. What is the efficiency of the engine and what is the entropy change in one cycle? A) e =60% ; S =43.9J/K B) e=40%S =41.3 J/K C) e =40% ; S =43.9 J/K D) e=60%S =41.3 J/K E) none of the above
