$A$ reversible Carnot heat engine converts $\frac{1}{4}$ of its input heat into work. When the temperature of the sink is reduced by $50 \ K$,its efficiency becomes $33 \frac{1}{3} \%$. The initial temperatures of the source and the sink respectively are

Consider a Carnot cycle operating between $T_1 = 500\, K$ and $T_2 = 300\, K$ producing $1\, kJ$ of mechanical work per cycle. Find the heat transferred to the engine by the reservoirs.

$A$ 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,

$A$ Carnot engine of efficiency $40 \%$ takes heat from a source maintained at a temperature of $500 \ K$. It is desired to have an engine of efficiency $60 \%$. Then,the source temperature for the same sink temperature must be (in $K$)
