Two samples $A$ and $B$ of a gas,initially at the same pressure and temperature,are compressed from volume $V$ to $V/2$. Sample $A$ is compressed isothermally,and sample $B$ is compressed adiabatically. 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
    Twice the final pressure of $B$

The ratio of the work done, change in internal energy, and heat absorbed when a diatomic gas expands at constant pressure is

The three processes in a thermodynamic cycle shown in the figure are: Process $1 \rightarrow 2$ is isothermal; Process $2 \rightarrow 3$ is isochoric (volume remains constant); Process $3 \rightarrow 1$ is adiabatic. The total work done by the ideal gas in this cycle is $10 \, J$. The internal energy decreases by $20 \, J$ in the isochoric process. The work done by the gas in the adiabatic process is $-20 \, J$. The heat added to the system in the isothermal process is .............. $J$.

$A$ monoatomic gas performs a work of $\frac{Q}{4}$,where $Q$ is the heat supplied to it. The molar heat capacity of the gas during this transformation will be $xR$,where $R$ is the gas constant. Find the value of $x$.

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 $\gamma = \frac{C_{P}}{C_{V}}$):
