$A$ Carnot engine absorbs heat from a reservoir maintained at temperature $1000 \,K$. The engine rejects heat to a reservoir whose temperature is $T$. If the magnitude of absorbed heat is $400 \,J$ and work performed is $300 \,J$, then the value of $T$ is (in $\,K$)

$A$ Carnot engine operates between a source and a sink. The efficiency of the engine is $40 \%$ and the temperature of the sink is $27^{\circ} C$. If the efficiency is to be increased to $50 \%$,then the temperature of the source must be increased by: (in $K$)

State and explain Carnot's theorem.

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

Suppose that two heat engines are connected in series,such that the heat released by the first engine is used as the heat absorbed by the second engine,as shown in the figure. The efficiencies of the engines are $\epsilon_1$ and $\epsilon_2$,respectively. The net efficiency of the combination is given by:
