$A$ Carnot engine operates between two reservoirs of temperatures $900 \; K$ and $300 \; K$. The engine performs $1200 \; J$ of work per cycle. The heat energy (in $J$) delivered by the engine to the low-temperature reservoir in a cycle is:

  • A
    $450$
  • B
    $500$
  • C
    $600$
  • D

An ideal gas heat engine operates in a Carnot cycle between $227^{\circ}C$ and $127^{\circ}C$. It absorbs $6\,kcal$ at the higher temperature. The amount of heat (in $kcal$) converted into work is equal to

Consider a two-stage Carnot engine. In the first stage, heat $Q_1$ is absorbed at temperature $T$ and heat $Q_2$ is expelled at temperature $\alpha T$ (where $\alpha < 1$). In the second stage, heat $Q_2$ is absorbed at temperature $\alpha T$ and heat $Q_3$ is expelled at temperature $\beta T$ (where $\beta < \alpha$). The efficiency of the Carnot engine will be
