An ideal heat engine operates in a Carnot cycle between $127^{\circ} C$ and $27^{\circ} C$. It absorbs $5 \times 10^4 \text{ cal}$ of heat at the higher temperature. The amount of heat converted to work is:

$A$ Carnot's engine has an efficiency of $25 \%$ when its sink is at $27^{\circ} C$. If it has to be increased to $40 \%$,what should be the temperature of the sink keeping the temperature of the source constant (in $K$)?

In the Carnot engine,when heat is taken from the source,the temperature of the source

$A$ Carnot engine operates with a source at $227^{\circ}C$ and a sink at $27^{\circ}C$. If the source supplies $50 \ kJ$ of heat energy,the work done by the engine is (in $kJ$)

In a Carnot engine,if the temperatures of the source and the sink are decreased by $100 \ K$ each,then the efficiency of the engine:
