Question #1 Report Error
The efficiency of an ideal Carnot engine operating between two temperatures T1 (source) and T2 (sink) is given by:
A. T2 / (T1 - T2)
B. 1 - (T1/T2)
C. 1 - (T2/T1)
D. (T1 - T2) / T2

Correct Answer: Option C


Explanation:
The thermal efficiency (η) of a reversible Carnot engine depends exclusively on the absolute temperatures of the hot source (T1) and the cold sink (T2). The formula is η = 1 - (T2/T1), or (T1 - T2) / T1. Temperatures must be in Kelvin. It shows no engine can be 100% efficient unless the sink is at absolute zero.

Question #3 Report Error
Medium n=2. Light speed in medium:
A. 1.5×10⁸ m/s
B. 0.5×10⁸ m/s
C. 6×10⁸ m/s
D. 3×10⁸ m/s

Correct Answer: Option A


Explanation:
v = c/n = 3×10⁸/2 = 1.5×10⁸ m/s. Direct refractive index application. Memory tip: 'Higher n ⇒ slower light; v = c/n'. Optics calculation frequently tested in competitive exams.
