$A$ Carnot engine $A$ working between temperatures $600 \ K$ and $T$ $(T < 600 \ K)$ and another Carnot engine $B$ working between temperatures $T$ $(T > 400 \ K)$ and $400 \ K$ are connected in series. If the work done by both the engines is the same, then $T =$ (in $K$)

$A$ 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:

What is a Carnot cycle?

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:

The efficiency of a Carnot engine operating with reservoir temperatures of $100\,^{\circ}C$ and $-23\,^{\circ}C$ will be
