The maximum possible efficiency of a heat engine is ...........

Two Carnot engines $A$ and $B$ are operated in series. The first one,$A,$ receives heat at $T_1 = 600 \, K$ and rejects heat to a reservoir at temperature $T_2.$ The second engine $B$ receives the heat rejected by the first engine and,in turn,rejects heat to a reservoir at $T_3 = 400 \, K.$ Calculate the temperature $T_2$ if the work outputs of the two engines are equal. (in $K$)

$A$ Carnot heat engine has an efficiency of $50 \%$. The temperature of the sink is maintained at $500 \ K$. To increase the efficiency up to $80 \%$, the required increment in the source temperature is: (in $K$)

$A$ Carnot engine, whose efficiency is $40\%$, takes heat from a source maintained at temperature $600\text{ K}$. To have an efficiency of $60\%$, the intake temperature for the same exhaust temperature should be: (in $\text{ K}$)

An ideal heat engine exhausting heat at $77^{\circ}C$ is to have a $30\%$ efficiency. It must take heat at ...... $^{\circ}C$.

$300 \, cal$ of heat is given to a heat engine and it rejects $225 \, cal$ of heat. If the source temperature is $227^{\circ} C$,then the temperature of the sink will be . . . . . . $^{\circ} C$.
