it states that the heat cannot transfer from cold temp to
high temp without any external workdone

Answer / gurmeet.mech

Clausis statement: it is impossible to construct an engine
which will transfer the heat from low temperature sink to a
higher temerature source.

Kelvin statement: It is impossible to construct an engine
which will do any work by operating between the same
temerature sources.

Answer / prasadsurendranaik

it is impossible to take energy from sink to source unless
use of externnal force

whenever you operate a heat engines between same sourse &
sink it has same efficiency
