Answer:
13.7%
Explanation:
Given that,
Heat absorbed by the engine = 97.2 kJ
Heat exhausted by the engine in each cycle = 83.8 kJ
We need to find the efficiency of the engine. It is calculated by the formula.
[tex]\eta=1-\dfrac{Q_e}{Q_a}\\\\=1-\dfrac{83.8}{97.2}\\\\=0.137\\\\=13.7\%[/tex]
so, the efficiency of heat engine is 13.7%.
