$A$ Carnot engine takes $3 \times 10^6 \, \text{cal}$ of heat from a reservoir at $627^{\circ}C$ and gives it to a sink at $27^{\circ}C$. The work done by the engine is:

The efficiency of a Carnot engine is $50 \%$ when the temperature of the sink is $500 \ K$. If the efficiency of the Carnot engine is to be increased to $60 \%$,what should be the temperature of the sink,keeping the temperature of the source constant (in $K$)?

$A$ heat engine operates between a cold reservoir at temperature $T_{2} = 400 \, K$ and a hot reservoir at temperature $T_{1}$. It takes $300 \, J$ of heat from the hot reservoir and delivers $240 \, J$ of heat to the cold reservoir in a cycle. The minimum temperature of the hot reservoir has to be $.... K$.

$A$ Carnot engine working between $300\, K$ and $600\, K$ has a work output of $800\, J$ per cycle. How much heat energy is supplied to the engine from the source in each cycle? .... $J$
