Initial pressure and volume of a gas are $P$ and $V$ respectively. First it is expanded isothermally to volume $4V$ and then compressed adiabatically to volume $V$. The final pressure of the gas will be (given $\gamma = 3/2$): (in $,P$)

Three moles of an ideal gas undergo a cyclic process $ABCA$ as shown in the figure. The pressure, volume, and absolute temperature at points $A, B,$ and $C$ are respectively $(P_1, V_1, T_1)$, $(P_2, 3V_1, T_1)$, and $(P_2, V_1, T_2)$. Then the total work done in the cycle $ABCA$ is (where $R$ is the universal gas constant).

$A$ small particle of mass $m$ moving inside a heavy, hollow and straight tube along the tube axis undergoes elastic collision at two ends. The tube has no friction and it is closed at one end by a flat surface while the other end is fitted with a heavy movable flat piston as shown in the figure. When the distance of the piston from the closed end is $L = L_0$, the particle speed is $v = v_0$. The piston is moved inward at a very low speed $V$ such that $V \ll \frac{dL}{L} v_0$, where $dL$ is the infinitely small displacement of the piston. Which of the following statement(s) is/are correct?
$(1)$ The rate at which the particle strikes the piston is $v / (2L)$
$(2)$ After each collision with the piston, the particle speed increases by $2V$
$(3)$ The particle's kinetic energy increases by a factor of $4$ when the piston is moved inward from $L_0$ to $L_0 / 2$
$(4)$ If the piston moves inward by $dL$, the particle speed increases by $v \frac{dL}{L}$

An ideal gas is subjected to a cyclic process $A B C D$ as depicted in the $p-V$ diagram given below. Which of the following curves represents the equivalent cyclic process?

Two cylinders $A$ and $B$ fitted with pistons contain an equal amount of an ideal diatomic gas at temperature $T$ $K$. The piston of cylinder $A$ is free to move,while that of $B$ is held fixed. The same amount of heat is given to the gas in each cylinder. If the rise in temperature of the gas in $A$ is $dT_{A}$,then the rise in temperature of the gas in cylinder $B$ is (where $\gamma = \frac{C_{P}}{C_{V}}$):

An ideal gas at initial temperature $T_0$ and initial volume $V_0$ is expanded adiabatically to a volume $2 V_0$. The gas is then expanded isothermally to a volume $5 V_0$ and thereafter compressed adiabatically so that the temperature of the gas becomes again $T_0$. If the final volume of the gas is $\alpha V_0$, then the value of constant $\alpha$ is
