In a Carnot engine,when the temperatures are $T_2 = 0^{\circ} C$ and $T_1 = 200^{\circ} C$,its efficiency is $\eta_1$. When the temperatures are $T_1 = 0^{\circ} C$ and $T_2 = -200^{\circ} C$,its efficiency is $\eta_2$. Then the value of $\frac{\eta_1}{\eta_2}$ is:

The efficiency of a Carnot engine is $\eta$ when its hot and cold reservoirs are maintained at temperatures $T_1$ and $T_2$,respectively. To increase the efficiency to $1.5 \eta$,the increase in temperature $(\Delta T)$ of the hot reservoir,while keeping the cold reservoir constant at $T_2$,is

$A$ Carnot engine takes $3 \times 10^6 \, \text{cal}$ of heat from a reservoir at $627^{\circ}C$ and gives it to a sink at $27^{\circ}C$. The work done by the engine is:

$A$ reversible engine converts one-sixth of the heat input into work. When the temperature of the sink is reduced by $62^\circ C$,the efficiency of the engine is doubled. The temperatures of the source and sink are:

For a Carnot engine,the efficiency is given by $W/Q_1 = 1/6$. If the temperature of the sink is reduced by $62^{\circ}C$,the efficiency doubles. The initial temperatures of the sink and the source are,respectively:
