An ideal gas heat engine operates in a Carnot cycle between $227^{\circ}C$ and $127^{\circ}C$. It absorbs $6 \times 10^4 \, J$ of heat at the high temperature. The amount of heat converted into work is:

  • A
    $4.8 \times 10^4 \, J$
  • B
    $3.5 \times 10^4 \, J$
  • C
    $1.6 \times 10^4 \, J$
  • D
    $1.2 \times 10^4 \, J$

$A$ Carnot engine takes $5000 \, kcal$ of heat from a reservoir at $727 \, ^{\circ}C$ and gives heat to a sink at $127 \, ^{\circ}C$. The work done by the engine is $.......... \times 10^{6} \, J$.

For which combination of working temperatures is the efficiency of a Carnot engine the highest?

$A$ reversible heat engine converts one-fourth of the heat input into work. When the temperature of the sink is reduced by $52 \, K$,its efficiency is doubled. The temperature in Kelvin of the source will be ...... .

The efficiency of a Carnot engine is $50\%$ and the temperature of the sink is $500\,K$. If the temperature of the source is kept constant and its efficiency is to be raised to $60\%$,then the required temperature of the sink will be ........... $K$.
