From research I found that the <span>fossil fuel resources are sometimes referred to as "buried sunshine" because they make the earth warm. They are also found deep in the earth and the energy stored in them was obtained from the sun long ago, and that's because they also produce energy the same way the sun does.

Hope this is the answer you were looking for and that it helps. :)</span>

(d) If η = 40% and TH = 427°C, what is TC, in °C?
Brrunno [24]

Answer:

T_C=256.2^{\circ}C

Explanation:

Given that,

Efficiency of heat engine, \eta=40\%=0.4

Temperature of hot source, T_H=427^{\circ}C

We need to find the temperature of cold sink i.e. T_C. The efficiency of heat engine is given by :

\eta=1-\dfrac{T_C}{T_H}

T_C=(1-\eta)T_H

T_C=(1-0.4)\times 427

T_C=256.2^{\circ}C

So, the temperature of the cold sink is 256.2°C. Hence, this is the required solution.
