A Carnot engine (E) is working between two temperatures 473K and 273K. In a new system two engines – engine E1 works between 473K to 373K and engine E2 works between 373K to 273K. If η12, η1 and η2 are the efficiencies of the engines E, E1 and E2, respectively, then
1
η12 < η1 + η2
2
η12 = η1 η2
3
η12 = η1 + η2
4
η12 ≥ η1 + η2
