An engine performs \(2000 \mathrm{~J}\) of mechanical work and discards \(4000 \mathrm{~J}\) of heat each cycle. What is the thermal efficiency of the engine?

  1. A \(45.5 \%\)
  2. B \(31.4 \%\)
  3. C \(25 \%\)
  4. D \(33.3 \%\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(33.3 \%\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Work done, \(W=2000 \mathrm{~J}\) Heat transferred to surrounding, \(Q_2=4000 \mathrm{~J}\) Let heat supplied to the engine \(=Q_1\) Since, \(Q_1=Q_2+W=2000+4000=6000 \mathrm{~J}\) Thermal efficiency,…
