In an isothermal process,the volume of an ideal gas is halved. One can say that:

  • A
    Internal energy of the system decreases
  • B
    Work done by the gas is positive
  • C
    Work done by the gas is negative
  • D
    Internal energy of the system increases

$A$ thermodynamic process in which the temperature $T$ of the system remains constant,although other variables $P$ and $V$ may change,is called:

During an isothermal expansion of an ideal gas,

$A$ piston of mass $M$ is hung from a massless spring whose restoring force law is given by $F = -kx^3$,where $k$ is the spring constant of appropriate dimension. The piston separates the vertical chamber into two parts,where the bottom part is filled with $n$ moles of an ideal gas. An external work is done on the gas isothermally (at a constant temperature $T$) with the help of a heating filament (with negligible volume) mounted in the lower part of the chamber,so that the piston moves up from a height $L_0$ to $L_1$. Calculate the total energy delivered by the filament. (Assume the spring to be in its natural length before heating.)
