The ratio of the efficiencies of two Carnot engines $A$ and $B$ is $1.25$. The temperature difference between the source and the sink is the same in both engines. The ratio of the absolute temperatures of the sources of engines $A$ and $B$ is

$A$ 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

The efficiency of a Carnot heat engine is $25 \%$ and the temperature of its source is $127^{\circ} C$. Without changing the temperature of the source,if the absolute temperature of the sink is decreased by $10 \%$,the new efficiency of the engine is: (in $\%$)

The efficiency of a Carnot engine is $50\%$ and the temperature of the sink is $500\,K$. If the temperature of the source is kept constant and its efficiency is to be raised to $60\%$,then the required temperature of the sink will be ........... $K$.
