A Carnot engine takes \(5000\) kcal of heat from a reservoir at \(727^\circ \text{C}\) and gives heat to a sink at \(127^\circ \text{C}.\) The work done by the engine is: 
1. \(3 \times 10^6 \) J
2. zero 
3. \(12.6 \times 10^6 \) J
4. \(8.4 \times 10^6 \) J

A heat engine operates between a cold reservoir at temperature \(T_2=300\) K and a hot reservoir at temperature \(T_1.\) If it were to take \(100\) J of heat from the hot reservoir and deliver \(80\) J of heat to the cold reservoir in each cycle, the minimum temperature of the hot reservoir would be:
1. \(350\) K
2. \(375\) K
3. \(400\) K
4. \(450\) K

A reversible engine converts one-sixth of the heat input into work. When the temperature of the sink is reduced by \(62^\circ \text{C}\), the efficiency of the engine is doubled. The temperatures of the source and sink are:
1. \(90^\circ \text{C}\)\(37^\circ \text{C}\)
2. \(99^\circ \text{C}\)\(37^\circ \text{C}\)
3. \(80^\circ \text{C}\)\(37^\circ \text{C}\)
4. \(95^\circ \text{C}\)\(37^\circ \text{C}\)

In a Carnot engine, the temperature of the reservoir is \(527^\circ \text{C}\) and that of the sink is \(200\) K. If the work done by the engine when it transfers heat from the reservoir to sink is \(12000\) kJ, the quantity of heat absorbed by the engine from the reservoir is:
1. \(12\times10^6\) J
2. \(14\times10^6\) J
3. \(16\times10^6\) J
4. \(18\times10^6\) J

\(300\) calories of heat is given to a heat engine and it rejects \(225\) calories of heat. If source temperature is \(227^\circ \text{C}\), then the temperature of sink will be:
1. \(102^\circ \text{C}\)
2. \(90^\circ \text{C}\)
3. \(110^\circ \text{C}\)
4. \(120^\circ \text{C}\)
