$A$ Carnot's heat engine works between the temperatures $427^{\circ} C$ and $27^{\circ} C$. How much heat in $kcal/s$ should it consume per second to deliver mechanical work at the rate of $1.0\,kW$?

$A$ reversible Carnot heat engine converts $\frac{1}{4}$ of its input heat into work. When the temperature of the sink is reduced by $50 \ K$,its efficiency becomes $33 \frac{1}{3} \%$. The initial temperatures of the source and the sink respectively are

If a source is at a temperature $T_1$ and a sink is at a temperature $T_2$,the efficiency of the Carnot engine is maximum when

The efficiency of a heat engine that works between the temperatures where Celsius-Fahrenheit scales coincide and Kelvin-Fahrenheit scales coincide is (approximately) (in $\%$)

The following figure shows a Carnot engine that works between temperatures $T_1=400 \text{ K}$ and $T_2=200 \text{ K}$ and drives a Carnot refrigerator that works between temperatures $T_3=350 \text{ K}$ and $T_4=250 \text{ K}$. The quantity $\frac{Q_3}{Q_1}$ will be

The efficiency of a Carnot engine is $50\%$ and the temperature of the sink is $500\,K$. If the temperature of the source is kept constant and its efficiency is to be raised to $60\%$,then the required temperature of the sink will be ........... $K$.
