Consider a two-stage Carnot engine. In the first stage, heat $Q_1$ is absorbed at temperature $T$ and heat $Q_2$ is expelled at temperature $\alpha T$ (where $\alpha < 1$). In the second stage, heat $Q_2$ is absorbed at temperature $\alpha T$ and heat $Q_3$ is expelled at temperature $\beta T$ (where $\beta < \alpha$). The efficiency of the Carnot engine will be

$A$ Carnot engine uses an ideal monoatomic gas first and then an ideal diatomic gas. If the source and sink temperatures are $411^{\circ}C$ and $69^{\circ}C$ respectively,and the engine extracts $1000 \, J$ of heat in each cycle,then the area enclosed by the $PV$ diagram is ........ $J$.

In a Carnot engine,if the absolute temperature of the source is $25 \%$ more than the absolute temperature of the sink,then the efficiency of the engine is (in $\%$)

The sink temperature of a Carnot engine is $27^{\circ}C$ and its efficiency is $25\%$. What is the temperature of the source in $^{\circ}C$?

In a heat engine,the temperature of the source and sink are $500\, K$ and $375\, K$. If the engine consumes $25\times10^5\, J$ per cycle,the work done per cycle is
