$A$ heat engine operates between a cold reservoir at temperature $T_{2} = 400 \, K$ and a hot reservoir at temperature $T_{1}$. It takes $300 \, J$ of heat from the hot reservoir and delivers $240 \, J$ of heat to the cold reservoir in a cycle. The minimum temperature of the hot reservoir has to be $.... K$.

$A$ Carnot engine, whose efficiency is $40\%$, takes heat from a source maintained at temperature $600\text{ K}$. To have an efficiency of $60\%$, the intake temperature for the same exhaust temperature should be: (in $\text{ K}$)
