Suppose the temperature of the input reservoir in a heat engine doesn't change.As the sink temperature is lowered,the efficiency of the engine

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The efficiency of a heat engine is given by (T1-T2)/T1, where T1 is the temperature of the input reservoir and T2 is the temperature of the sink. As T2 is lowered, the difference (T1-T2) increases, resulting in a higher efficiency. Therefore, the correct choice is A) increases.
