$A$ Carnot engine whose efficiency is $40 \%$, receives heat at $500 \ K$. If the efficiency is to be $50 \%$, the source temperature for the same exhaust temperature is (in $K$)

$A$ Carnot engine having an efficiency of $40\%$ takes heat from a source maintained at a temperature of $500 \ K$. If the efficiency is to be increased to $60\%$ while keeping the sink temperature constant,what should be the new source temperature in $K$?

This question has Statement $1$ and Statement $2.$ Of the four choices given after the Statements,choose the one that best describes the two Statements.
Statement $1 :$ An inventor claims to have constructed an engine that has an efficiency of $30\%$ when operated between the boiling and freezing points of water. This is not possible.
Statement $2:$ The efficiency of a real engine is always less than the efficiency of a Carnot engine operating between the same two temperatures.

$A$ Carnot engine with its cold body at $17\,^{\circ}C$ has $50\%$ efficiency. If the temperature of its hot body is now increased by $145\,^{\circ}C$,the efficiency becomes...... $\%$

An engine is supposed to operate between two reservoirs at temperatures $727^oC$ and $227^oC$. The maximum possible efficiency of such an engine is:

In a Carnot engine,the absolute temperature of the source is $25 \%$ more than the absolute temperature of the sink. The efficiency of the engine is (in $\%$)
