What is expression gives the efficiency of an ideal heat engine operating between a higher temperature Th and a lower temperature Tc (both expressed in kelvins)?
 a. = 1 + Tc / Th
  b. = 1  Tc / Th
  c. = 1  Th / Tc
  d. = 1  Tc
  e. = Tc / Th

Question 2

What is the expression for efficiency () in terms of the work W done by the system and the heat Q added to it?
 a. = WQ
  b. = Q/W
  c. = Q + W
  d. = Q + 273K
  e. = W/Q
