OR
can you design a heat engine of efficiency? Explain ypur answer.
OR
A heat engine with efficiency is only a theoretical possibility. Explain.
Video Solution
Text Solution
The correct Answer is:The efficiency of a heat engine,
The efficiency will be
Since temperature equal to cannot be reached, a heat engine cannot have efficiency.
