$A$ heat engine operating between temperatures $T_1$ and $T_2$ has an efficiency of $\frac{1}{6}$. When $T_2$ is lowered by $62 \ K$,its efficiency increases to $\frac{1}{3}$. Then $T_1$ and $T_2$ respectively are:

  • A
    $372 \ K, 310 \ K$
  • B
    $372 \ K, 330 \ K$
  • C
    $330 \ K, 268 \ K$
  • D
    $310 \ K, 248 \ K$
