An ideal Carnot engine,whose efficiency is $40 \%$ receives heat at $500 \; K$. If its efficiency is $50 \%$ then the intake temperature for the same exhaust temperature is ......... $K$.

Determine the efficiency of a Carnot cycle if,in the adiabatic expansion,the volume becomes $3$ times its initial value and $\gamma = 1.5$.

Two Carnot engines $A$ and $B$ are operated in series. Engine $A$ receives heat from a reservoir at $600\,K$ and rejects heat to a reservoir at temperature $T$. Engine $B$ receives heat rejected by engine $A$ and in turn rejects it to a reservoir at $100\,K$. If the efficiencies of the two engines $A$ and $B$ are equal,what is the value of the intermediate temperature $T$ and the ratio of their efficiencies $\frac{\eta_A}{\eta_B}$?

Efficiency of a heat engine whose sink is at temperature of $300 \,K$ is $40 \%$. To increase the efficiency to $60 \%$, keeping the sink temperature constant, the source temperature must be increased by (in $\,K$)

$A$ Carnot engine has an efficiency of $40\%$. The temperature of its sink is $300 \ K$. To increase the efficiency by $50\%$ of its original efficiency while keeping the sink temperature constant,by how many $K$ must the source temperature be increased?
