The exhaust temperature of a Carnot heat engine is 297°C. What is the intake temperature if the efficiency of the engine is 13.5%? Answer in units of °C.
Added by Carla H.
Step 1
Given: Exhaust temperature = 297°C To convert from Celsius to Kelvin, use the formula: K = °C + 273 So, exhaust temperature in Kelvin = 297 + 273 = 570 K Show more…
