In summary: I'm not sure if it's worth pursuing as the graph is obviously not to scale and the work done is not given...In summary, the conversation discusses the efficiency of a Carnot engine operating with a high-temperature and low-temperature reservoirs, using a cyclic heat engine with 0.75kg of an ideal gas. The cycle consists of two isobaric processes and two isometric processes, and the graph provided shows the relationship between pressure and volume. The efficiency is calculated using the formula 1-T_c/T_h, but there is confusion about the correct solution, with some arguing for 40% and others for 53%. Different methods are suggested, such as using the ideal gas law or calculating temperature at different

No, I just stole what you did. (with some refining) :rofl:
