The ratio WQfor a Carnot engine is 16 Now the temperature of o6 sink is reduced by 62oC, then this ratio becomes twice. The initial temperature of the sink and source are respectively :

a
33oC, 67oC
b
37oC,99oC
c
67oC,33oC
d
97 K,37 K

detailed solution

Correct option is B

WQ=16⇒1-TLTH=16⇒TLTH=56If sink temperature decrease by 62oC then             1-TL-62TH=2×16 ⇒        2TH=3TL-186 Hence,      TH=372 K=99o C and TL=310 K = 37oC
