What is an isothermal process, adiabatic process, and isobaric process? Write the first law of thermodynamics for an ideal gas.
(N/A) $1$. Isothermal Process: $A$ process in which the temperature of the system remains constant $(T = \text{constant})$. For an ideal gas, the internal energy remains constant $(dU = 0)$.
$2$. Adiabatic Process: $A$ process in which there is no exchange of heat between the system and its surroundings $(dQ = 0)$.
$3$. Isobaric Process: $A$ process in which the pressure of the system remains constant $(P = \text{constant})$.
$4$. First Law of Thermodynamics: For an ideal gas, the first law is given by $dQ = dU + dW$, where $dQ$ is the heat supplied to the system, $dU$ is the change in internal energy, and $dW$ is the work done by the system.

Three processes form a thermodynamic cycle as shown on the $P-V$ diagram for an ideal gas. Process $1 \rightarrow 2$ takes place at a constant temperature $(300 \ K)$. Process $2 \rightarrow 3$ takes place at a constant volume. During this process,$40 \ J$ of heat leaves the system. Process $3 \rightarrow 1$ is adiabatic and the temperature $T_3$ is $275 \ K$. The work done by the gas during the process $3 \rightarrow 1$ is ..... $J$.
One mole of a diatomic ideal gas undergoes a cyclic process $ABC$ as shown in the figure. The process $BC$ is adiabatic. The temperatures at $A, B$ and $C$ are $400 \ K, 800 \ K$ and $600 \ K$ respectively. Choose the correct statement.
Two identical vessels $A$ and $B$ contain equal amounts of an ideal monoatomic gas. The piston of $A$ is fixed,while the piston of $B$ is free to move. The same amount of heat $\Delta Q$ is absorbed by both $A$ and $B$. If the internal energy of $B$ increases by $100 \, J$,what is the change in the internal energy of $A$ (in $, J$)?
An ideal gas expands isothermally from volume $V_1$ to volume $V_2$. It is then compressed to the original volume $V_1$ adiabatically. If $p_1$ and $p_2$ represent the initial pressure and final pressure respectively, and $W$ represents the net work done by the gas during the entire process, then:
$A$ thermodynamic cycle takes in heat energy at a high temperature and rejects energy at a lower temperature. If the amount of energy rejected at the low temperature is $3$ times the amount of work done by the cycle,the efficiency of the cycle is
