Derive efficiency of carnot engine and carnot theorem..

in isothermal expansion:

q1=w1

q1= 2.303 log10v2/v1 RT1

gas expands at the cost of internal energy

adiabatic process so

w2= r(t1-t2)/y -1

t1>t2

in isothermal compression:

q3=w3

q3= -RT2 2.303 log10 v3/v4

at insulating stand:

w4= -R(t1-t2)/ y -1

total work done= w1+w2+w3+w4

W= 2.303log10v2/v1 - 2.303 log10 v3/v4

W=w1-w3

W= q1-q3

n = w/q1= 1- q2/q1

n= 1-( RT2log v3/v4) /(RT1log v2/v1)

v3/v4= v2/v1 bcoz it is in isothermal n adiabatic compression as well as expansion.

n= 1-( t2/t1)
