Answer:
efficiency of a machine is less than 100% because some part is energy is utilized to overcome some opposing forces like friction which is wasted as heat ,sound energy etc
Explanation:
Answer:
The temperature of cold reservoir should be 246.818 K for efficiency of 35%
Explanation:
In first case we have given efficiency of Carnot engine = 26 % = 0.26
Temperature of cold reservoir 
We know that efficiency of Carnot engine is given by



For second Carnot engine efficiency is given as 35% = 0.35
And temperature of hot reservoir is same so 
So 

So the temperature of cold reservoir should be 246.818 K for efficiency of 35%
