$A$ Carnot engine has an efficiency of $\frac{1}{6}$. When the temperature of the sink is lowered by $57 \ K$,its efficiency becomes $\frac{1}{3}$. The temperature of the source is: (in $K$)

Two heat engines $X$ and $Y$ of same efficiency are connected in series in such a way that the sink of $X$ works as the source of $Y$. $X$ receives heat at $900 \,K$ and rejects some heat to its sink at $T \,K$, and in turn, $Y$ rejects heat to its sink at $400 \,K$. Then the temperature $T$ is: (in $\,K$)

$A$ Carnot heat engine absorbs $600 \ J$ of heat from a source at a temperature of $127^{\circ} C$ and rejects $400 \ J$ of heat to a sink in each cycle. The temperature of the sink is (in $K$)

Three Carnot engines operate in series between a heat source at temperature $T_1$ and a heat sink at a temperature $T_4$. There are two other reservoirs at temperatures $T_2$ and $T_3$. If the three engines are equally efficient,find the values of $T_2$ and $T_3$ in terms of $T_1$ and $T_4$,given that $T_1 > T_2 > T_3 > T_4$.

What is the source temperature of the Carnot engine required to get $70 \%$ efficiency (in $^{\circ}C$)? Given sink temperature $= 27^{\circ}C$.
