$A$ diatomic ideal gas is used in a Carnot engine as a working substance. If during the adiabatic expansion part of the cycle,the volume of the gas increases from $V$ to $32V$,the efficiency of the engine is:

Two Carnot engines $A$ and $B$ are operated in series. Engine $A$ receives heat from a reservoir at $600\,K$ and rejects heat to a reservoir at temperature $T$. Engine $B$ receives heat rejected by engine $A$ and in turn rejects it to a reservoir at $100\,K$. If the efficiencies of the two engines $A$ and $B$ are equal,what is the value of the intermediate temperature $T$ and the ratio of their efficiencies $\frac{\eta_A}{\eta_B}$?
