This question has Statement $1$ and Statement $2.$ Of the four choices given after the Statements,choose the one that best describes the two Statements.
Statement $1 :$ An inventor claims to have constructed an engine that has an efficiency of $30\%$ when operated between the boiling and freezing points of water. This is not possible.
Statement $2:$ The efficiency of a real engine is always less than the efficiency of a Carnot engine operating between the same two temperatures.

Consider a Carnot engine working between $T_1 = 500 \ K$ and $T_2 = 300 \ K$ producing $1 \ kJ$ of mechanical work per cycle. Calculate the heat absorbed by the engine from the source. (in $kJ$)

$A$ Carnot engine has the same efficiency between $(i)$ $100 \ K$ and $600 \ K$ and (ii) $T \ K$ and $960 \ K$. The temperature $T$ in kelvin of the sink is

$A$ Carnot engine is made to work between $200^{\circ}C$ and $0^{\circ}C$ first and then between $0^{\circ}C$ and $-200^{\circ}C$. The ratio of efficiencies of the engine in the two cases is

In a Carnot engine,when the temperatures are $T_2 = 0^{\circ} C$ and $T_1 = 200^{\circ} C$,its efficiency is $\eta_1$. When the temperatures are $T_1 = 0^{\circ} C$ and $T_2 = -200^{\circ} C$,its efficiency is $\eta_2$. Then the value of $\frac{\eta_1}{\eta_2}$ is:
