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:

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.
