A heat engine receives an amount of energy Qh760 kJ by heat transfer from a high temperature thermal reservoir at T= 990 K. Energyis rejected by heat transfer to a lower temperature thermal reservoir at T= 590 K. If waste heat in the amount of Q= 230 kJ is rejected to the low temperaturethermal reservoir during each cycle answer the following questions.Solve for the maximum theoretical efficiency that an engine in this situation could operate with.NmaxSolve for the actual efficiency that the engine is operating with.Пact
