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:

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

$A$ scientist claims that their heat engine has an efficiency of $26\%$ when operating between a source temperature of $127^{\circ}C$ and a sink temperature of $27^{\circ}C$. This implies that:
