What is its ideal efficiency and its actual efficiency

Reference no: EM13655259

A heat engine makes use of 785 kJ of heat to produce 245kJ of work. It operates at a temperature of 285 oC It exhausts heat to the 22.5 oC atmosphere. What is its ideal efficiency and its actual efficiency Why are these two quantities so different?
