Given below are two statements one is labelled as Assertion A and the other is labelled as Reason R.
Assertion A : Efficiency of a reversible heat engine will be highest at –273°C temperature of cold reservoir.
Reason R : The efficiency of Carnot’s engine depends not only on temperature of cold reservoir but it depends on the temperature of hot reservoir too and is given as \(η =(1-\frac{T_2}{T_1})\).
In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below :
(1) A is true but R is false
(2) Both A and R are true but R is NOT the correct explanation of A
(3) A is false but R is true
(4) Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A
