JEE Mains · Physics · STD 11 - 11. thermodynamics

A heat engine is involved with exchange of heat of \(1915\, J,\) \(-40\, J ,+125\, J\) and \(-Q\,J\), during one cycle achieving an efficiency of \(50.0 \%\). The value of \(Q\) is.......\(J\)

  1. A \(640\)
  2. B \(400\)
  3. C \(980\)
  4. D \(40\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(980\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\eta=\frac{\text { Work done }}{\text { Heat supplied }}\) \(\frac{1}{2}=\eta=\frac{1915-40+125- Q }{1915+125}\) \(\frac{1}{2}=\frac{2000- Q }{2040}\) \(2040=4000-2 Q\) \(2 Q =1960\) \(Q =980 J\)
