Solution

The correct option is A $10.82 %$
Here $Q_{1} = + 9605 J$ , hence it represents the heat absorbed by working substance.
$Q_{2} = - 8565 J$ , hence it represents the heat rejected to sink by working substance.
Thermal efficiency of heat engine is given as,
$η = (1 - \frac{Q_{2}}{Q_{1}}) \times 100$
$η = (1 - \frac{8565}{9605}) \times 100$
$∴ η = 10.82 %$
