The heat engine per cycle receives from the heater the amount of heat 100 J

The heat engine per cycle receives from the heater the amount of heat 100 J and gives the refrigerator 75 J. What is the efficiency of the machine.

Given:

Q1 = 100 J;

Q2 = 75 J;

Efficiency -?

Decision:

heat engine efficiency formula:

Efficiency = (Q1 – Q2) / Q1 * 100%;

Efficiency = (100 – 75) / 100 * 100 = 25/100 * 100 = 25%.
