How can net heat absorbed in a REVERSIBLE cycle be non-zero?
In reversible cycle there is 2 step workdone.
And the final stage is same as initial stage i.e same temperature volume and pressure. This indicated that there is no change in internal energy during complete cycle. It implies that to do work system must have absorved energy and then converted it into work. Hence net absorved heat will be non zero.

Operating in series are two reversible heat pumps. Heat transfer
gives energy to the first cycle from a cold reservoir at 105 K and
rejects energy by heat transfer to a reservoir at an intermediate
temperature T greater than 105 K. The second cycle receives energy
by heat transfer from the reservoir at T and rejects energy by heat
transfer to a higher-temperature reservoir at 1200 K. If the heat
pump cycles have the same co-efficient of performance, calculate:
