Two reversible Carnot engines operate in series between a high‑temperature (TH) and a low temperature (Tc) reservoir. Engine A rejects heat to engine B, which in turn rejects heat to the low‑temperature reservoir. The high‑temperature reservoir supplies heat to engine A. Let TH= 10000K and Tc = 4000K and the engine thermal efficiencies are equal. The heat received by engine A is 500 kJ. Determine (a) the temperature of heat rejection by engine A; (b) the works of engine A and engine B; (c) the heat rejected by engine B

Question
2. Two reversible Carnot engines operate in series between a high‑temperature (TH)
and a low temperature (Tc) reservoir. Engine A rejects heat to engine B, which in
turn rejects heat to the low‑temperature reservoir. The high‑temperature reservoir
supplies heat to engine A. Let TH= 10000K and Tc = 4000K and the engine
thermal efficiencies are equal. The heat received by engine A is 500 kJ.
Determine (a) the temperature of heat rejection by engine A; (b) the works of
engine A and engine B; (c) the heat rejected by engine B.
