$A$ reversible engine converts one-sixth of the heat supplied into work. When the temperature of the sink is reduced by $62^{\circ} C$, the efficiency of the engine is doubled. The temperatures of the source and sink are

  • A
    $99^{\circ} C, 37^{\circ} C$
  • B
    $80^{\circ} C, 37^{\circ} C$
  • C
    $95^{\circ} C, 37^{\circ} C$
  • D
    $90^{\circ} C, 37^{\circ} C$

$A$ 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 $1.0\,kW$?

$A$ Carnot engine with efficiency $\eta$ operates between two heat reservoirs with temperatures $T_1$ and $T_2$, where $T_1 > T_2$. If only $T_1$ is changed by $0.4 \%$, the change in efficiency is $\Delta \eta_1$, whereas if only $T_2$ is changed by $0.2 \%$, the efficiency is changed by $\Delta \eta_2$. The ratio $\frac{\Delta \eta_1}{\Delta \eta_2}$ is approximately,
