what is the efficiency of an engine that does 80 j of work and exhausts 320 j of heat while taking in 400 j of heat ?
a. 10%
b. 20%
c. 80%
d. 25%

Respuesta :

Answer:

b. 20%

Explanation:

Efficiency of an engine is a ratio in percentage of the work done to the energy intake of the engine.

η=(Q₁-Q₂)/Q₁×100%

η is efficiency, Q₁ is the energy intake, Q₂ is energy wasted.

The information provided is:

Energy intake = 400 J

Work done = 80 J = (400-320) =Q₁-Q₂

Energy wasted =320 J

η= 80/400×100%

=20%

B.20 %
