To determine how the efficiency of a Carnot engine changes when the ratio of the absolute temperatures of the sink and source changes, we follow these steps: Given:
- Initial temperature ratio:
- New temperature ratio:
Step 1: Calculate the Initial Efficiency The efficiency of a Carnot engine is given by: For the initial ratio:
Step 2: Calculate the New Efficiency For the new ratio:
Step 3: Determine the Change in Efficiency
The change in efficiency is: However, we are interested in the absolute change relative to the initial efficiency:
Final Answer: This corresponds to option (1).
The mass of particle X is four times the mass of particle Y. The velocity of particle Y is four times the velocity of X. The ratio of de Broglie wavelengths of X and Y is:
