The efficiency of an ideal Carnot engine working between temperatures $T_1$ and $T_2$ is $1/3$. If the temperature of the sink is reduced by $40 \%$,then its efficiency will be: (in $\%$)

Two Carnot engines $A$ and $B$ operate in series such that engine $A$ absorbs heat $Q_1$ at temperature $T_1$ and rejects heat $Q$ to a sink at temperature $T$. Engine $B$ absorbs half of the heat rejected by engine $A$ (i.e.,$Q/2$) and rejects heat $Q_3$ to the sink at temperature $T_3$. When the work done in both cases is equal,the value of $T$ is:

$A$ Carnot engine works first between $200^{\circ} C$ and $0^{\circ} C$ and then between $0^{\circ} C$ and $-200^{\circ} C$. The ratio of its efficiency in the two cases is

$A$ reversible engine and an irreversible engine are working between the same temperatures. The efficiency of the ...........
