For which of the following options will the efficiency of a Carnot engine be the highest?

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 found to increase from $25 \%$ to $40 \%$ on increasing the temperature $(T_1)$ of the source alone by $100 \ K$. The temperature $(T_2)$ of the sink is given by: (in $K$)

$A$ Carnot engine operating between temperatures $T_1$ and $T_2$ has efficiency $\frac{1}{6}$. When $T_2$ is lowered by $60\,K$,its efficiency increases to $\frac{1}{3}$. Then $T_1$ and $T_2$ are respectively:
