Q1

A Carnot engine (E) is working between two temperatures 473 K and 273 K . In a new system two engines - engine \({E}_{1}\) works between 473 K to 373 K and engine \({E}_{2}\) works between 373 K to 273 K . If \({\eta }_{12}\), \({\eta }_{1}\) and \({\eta }_{2}\) are the efficiencies of the engines \(E\), \({E}_{1}\) and \({E}_{2}\), respectively, then

a

\begin{equation}
\eta_{12}<\eta_1+\eta_2
\end{equation}

b

\begin{equation}
\eta_{12}=\eta_1+\eta_2
\end{equation}

c

\begin{equation}
\eta_{12}=\eta_1 \eta_2
\end{equation}

d

\begin{equation}
\eta_{12} \geq \eta_1+\eta_2
\end{equation}
