$A$ gas is enclosed in a cylinder with a movable frictionless piston. Its initial thermodynamic state at pressure $P_i = 10^5 \text{ Pa}$ and volume $V_i = 10^{-3} \text{ m}^3$ changes to a final state at $P_f = (1/32) \times 10^5 \text{ Pa}$ and $V_f = 8 \times 10^{-3} \text{ m}^3$ in an adiabatic quasi-static process, such that $P^3 V^5 = \text{constant}$. Consider another thermodynamic process that brings the system from the same initial state to the same final state in two steps: an isobaric expansion at $P_i$, followed by an isochoric (isovolumetric) process at volume $V_f$. The amount of heat supplied to the system in the two-step process is approximately: (in $\text{ J}$)

Consider two containers $A$ and $B$ containing monoatomic gases at the same Pressure $(P)$,Volume $(V)$ and Temperature $(T)$. The gas in $A$ is compressed isothermally to $\frac{1}{8}$ of its original volume while the gas $B$ is compressed adiabatically to $\frac{1}{8}$ of its original volume. The ratio of final pressure of gas in $B$ to that of gas in $A$ is ...........
