100 + 273 = 373 deg K
700 + 273 = 973 deg K
ideal Carnot eff = 1 - Tl/Th = 1 - 373/973 = 0.6166
real efficiency = 0.40* .6166 = 0.2467
so 5000 J / 0.2467 = 20,268 Joules
700 + 273 = 973 deg K
ideal Carnot eff = 1 - Tl/Th = 1 - 373/973 = 0.6166
real efficiency = 0.40* .6166 = 0.2467
so 5000 J / 0.2467 = 20,268 Joules
