The working substance of a certain Carnot engine is 1 mol of an ideal monatomic gas. During the isothermal expansion portion of this engine'scycle, the volume of the gas doubles, while during the adiabatic expansion the volume increases by a factor of 5.7. The work output of the engine is 920 J in each cycle. Compute the temperatures of the two reservoirs between which this engine operates.
