    A long cylindrical pipe of radius $20 \,cm$ is closed at its upper end and has an airtight piston of negligible mass as shown. When a $50 \,kg$ mass is attached to the other end of the piston, it moves down. If the air in the enclosure is cooled from temperature $T$ to $T-\Delta T$, the piston moves back to its original position. Then $\Delta T / T$ is close to (Assuming air to be an ideal gas, $g=10 \,m / s ^2$, atmospheric pressure is $10^5 \,Pa$ )

    Two Carnot engines $A$ and $B$ are operated in succession. The first one, $A$ receives heat from a source at ${T_1} = 800K$ and rejects to sink at ${T_2}K.$. The second engine $B$ receives heat rejected by the first engine and rejects to another sink at ${T_3} = 300K.$ If the work outputs of two engines are equal, then the value of ${T_2}$ is .... $K$
