Nonamiya [84]3 years ago

Answer: 57.1 %

Explanation:

The efficiency of the engine is given by:

\eta=\frac{Q_{used}}{Q_{in}}

where the numerator corresponds to the heat used by the engine, while the denominator corresponds to the heat in input to the engine.

In this problem, the heat in input is

Q_{in}=7000 J

while the heat used is

Q_{used}=7000 J-3000 J=4000 J

So, the efficiency is

\eta=\frac{4000 J}{7000 J}=0.571=57.1\%
