Consider the efficiency of Carnot's engine is given by \(\eta=\frac{\alpha \beta}{\sin \theta} \log _{e} \frac{\beta x}{k T}\), where \(\alpha\) and \(\beta\) are constants. If \(T\) is temperature, \(k\) is Boltzman constant, \(\theta\) is angular displacement and \(x\) has the dimensions of length. Then, choose the incorrect option.

  1. A Dimensions of \(\beta\) is same as that of force.
  2. B Dimensions of \(\alpha^{-1} x\) is same as that of energy.
  3. C Dimensions of \(\eta^{-1} \sin \theta\) is same as that of \(\alpha \beta\)
  4. D Dimensions of \(\alpha\) is same as that of \(\beta\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) Dimensions of \(\alpha\) is same as that of \(\beta\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\([\alpha \beta]=[\eta]=[\sin \theta]=\) Dimensionless \(\left[\eta^{-1} \sin \theta\right]=[\alpha \beta]=\text { D.L. }\)
