Answer:

43.2%

Explanation:

Given that,

Heat absorbed by a carnot heat engine, Q_1=235\ kW

Heat rejected to the atmosphere, Q_2=164\ kW

We need ti find the thermal efficiency of the heat engine. It is equal to the ratio of output work to the energy supplied. Its mathematical form is given by :

\eta=1-\dfrac{Q_1}{Q_2}\\\\\eta=1-\dfrac{235}{164}\\\\\eta=-0.432

or

\eta=-43.2\%

The egative value of efficiency shows work is done by the engine.
