Please help with the following:
Prove that the efficiency of two carnot engines operating in tandem, one going from a cold reservoir of temperature Tc to a hot reservoir of Ti, then the second going from a cold reservoir of temperature Ti, to a hot reservoir of temperature Th must be less than that of a single carnot engine going from Tc to Th.
