$A$ Carnot engine absorbs heat from a reservoir maintained at temperature $1000 \,K$. The engine rejects heat to a reservoir whose temperature is $T$. If the magnitude of absorbed heat is $400 \,J$ and work performed is $300 \,J$, then the value of $T$ is (in $\,K$)

The efficiency of a Carnot engine is found to increase from $25 \%$ to $40 \%$ on increasing the temperature $(T_1)$ of the source alone by $100 \ K$. The temperature $(T_2)$ of the sink is given by: (in $K$)

An ideal gas heat engine operates in a Carnot cycle between $227\,^{\circ}C$ and $127\,^{\circ}C$. It absorbs $6.0 \times 10^4\,cal$ at the higher temperature. The amount of heat converted into work is equal to
