Two samples of gas $A$ and $B$ are initially at the same pressure and temperature. They are compressed from volume $V$ to $V/2$. If $A$ is compressed isothermally and $B$ is compressed adiabatically,then the final pressure of $A$ is:

  • A
    Greater than the final pressure of $B$
  • B
    Equal to the final pressure of $B$
  • C
    Less than the final pressure of $B$
  • D
    Double the final pressure of $B$

An ideal monoatomic gas is confined in a horizontal cylinder by a spring-loaded piston (as shown in the figure). Initially,the gas is at temperature $T_1$,pressure $P_1$,and volume $V_1$,and the spring is in its relaxed state. The gas is then heated very slowly to temperature $T_2$,pressure $P_2$,and volume $V_2$. During this process,the piston moves out by a distance $x$. Ignoring the friction between the piston and the cylinder,the correct statement$(s)$ is(are):
$(A)$ If $V_2=2V_1$ and $T_2=3T_1$,then the energy stored in the spring is $\frac{1}{4}P_1V_1$
$(B)$ If $V_2=2V_1$ and $T_2=3T_1$,then the change in internal energy is $3P_1V_1$
$(C)$ If $V_2=3V_1$ and $T_2=4T_1$,then the work done by the gas is $\frac{7}{3}P_1V_1$
$(D)$ If $V_2=3V_1$ and $T_2=4T_1$,then the heat supplied to the gas is $\frac{41}{6}P_1V_1$

An office room contains about $2000$ moles of air. The change in the internal energy of this much air when it is cooled from $34^{\circ} C$ to $24^{\circ} C$ at a constant pressure of $1.0 \text{ atm}$ is (Use $\gamma_{\text{air}} = 1.4$ and universal gas constant $R = 8.314 \text{ J/mol-K}$)

The efficiency of a thermodynamic cycle $1-2-3-1$ (see picture) is $20\%$ and for another thermodynamic cycle $1-3-4-1$ efficiency is equal to $10\%$. Determine the efficiency $\eta$ (in $\%$) of the thermodynamic cycle $1-2-3-4-1$. The gas is assumed to be ideal.
