The efficiency of a Carnot's engine, working between steam point and ice point, will be $....\,\%$
$26.81$
$37.81$
$47.81$
$57.81$
$Assertion :$ The isothermal curves intersect each other at a certain point.
$Reason :$ The isothermal changes takes place rapidly, so the isothermal curves have very little slope.
The ratio of the specific heats $\frac{{{C_p}}}{{{C_V}}} = \gamma $ in terms of degrees of freedom $(n)$ is givln by
An ideal gas heat engine operates in Carnot's cycle between $227\,^oC$ and $127\,^oC$ . It absorbs $6.0 \times 10^4\,cal$ at higher temperature. The amount of heat converted into work is equal to
$P-V$ plots for two gases during adiabatic process are shown in the figure. Plots $(1)$ and $(2)$ corresponds respectively to
In the cyclic process shown on the $P -V$ diagram, the magnitude of the work done is
