In \(1^{\text{st}}\) case, Carnot engine operates between temperatures \(300\) K and \(100\) K. In \(2^{\text{nd}}\) case, as shown in the figure, a combination of two engines is used. The efficiency of this combination (in \(2^{\text{nd}}\) case) will be:
| 1. | same as the \(1^{\text{st}}\) case. |
| 2. | always greater than the \(1^{\text{st}}\) case. |
| 3. | always less than the \(1^{\text{st}}\) case. |
| 4. | may increase or decrease with respect to the \(1^{\text{st}}\) case. |

An ideal gas forms the working substance of a Carnot engine, and is taken around the Carnot cycle. We form the integral: \(I=\int\dfrac{dQ}{T},\)
where \(dQ\) is the heat supplied to the gas and \(T\) is the temperature of the gas. The integral is evaluated over the entire cycle. The value of the integral \(I\) is:
where \(dQ\) is the heat supplied to the gas and \(T\) is the temperature of the gas. The integral is evaluated over the entire cycle. The value of the integral \(I\) is:
| 1. | zero |
| 2. | negative |
| 3. | positive |
| 4. | non-negative(positive or zero) |

A Carnot engine takes \(5000~\text{kcal}\) 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. \(3 \times 10^6 ~\text J\)
2. zero
3. \(12.6 \times 10^6 \)
4. \(8.4 \times 10^6 \)
