Answer:

58.5 %

Explanation:

temperature of hot source, T1 = 325 K

temperature of cold source, T2 = 135 K

The efficiency of a heat engine is defined as the ratio of work done to the input energy.

the formula to find the efficiency of heat engine is given by

η = 1 - T2 / T1

η = 1 - 135 / 325

η = 0.585

η = 58.5 %

IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

Enter an equation of a chemical reaction and click 'Balance'. The answer will appear below

Always use the upper case for the first character in the element name and the lower case for the second character.

To enter an electron into a chemical equation use {-} or e

To enter an ion specify charge after the compound in curly brackets: {+3} or {3+} or {3}. Example: Fe{3+} + I{-} =...

Substitute immutable groups in chemical compounds to avoid ambiguity. For instance equation C6H5C2H5 + O2 = C6H5OH + CO2...
