A heat engine (Carnot 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

For a heat engine based on the Carnot cycle source is at a temperature \(600~\mathrm{K}\). Now if source temperature is doubled then efficiency also gets doubled while keeping the sink temperature same at \(x ~\mathrm{K}\). The value of \(x \) is equal to:
1. \(400\) 
2. \(600\) 
3. \(200\) 
4. \(300\)

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
