Which of the following statements is correct?

  • A
    For an isothermal change, $PV = \text{constant}$.
  • B
    In an isothermal process, the change in internal energy must be equal to the work done.
  • C
    For an adiabatic change, $\frac{P_2}{P_1} = \left( \frac{V_1}{V_2} \right)^\gamma$, where $\gamma$ is the ratio of specific heats.
  • D
    In an adiabatic process, work done must be equal to the heat entering the system.

Two gases $A$ and $B$ are filled at the same pressure in separate cylinders with movable pistons of radius $r_A$ and $r_B$,respectively. On supplying an equal amount of heat to both the systems reversibly under constant pressure,the pistons of gas $A$ and $B$ are displaced by $16 \ cm$ and $9 \ cm$,respectively. If the change in their internal energy is the same,then the ratio $\frac{r_A}{r_B}$ is equal to

An ideal gas is subjected to a cyclic process involving four thermodynamic states. The amounts of heat $(Q)$ and work $(W)$ involved in each of these states are:
$Q_1 = 6000 \ J, Q_2 = -5500 \ J, Q_3 = -3000 \ J, Q_4 = 3500 \ J$
$W_1 = 2500 \ J, W_2 = -1000 \ J, W_3 = -1200 \ J, W_4 = x \ J$
The ratio of the net work done by the gas to the total heat absorbed by the gas is $\eta$. The values of $x$ and $\eta$ respectively are:

$A$ gas is compressed from a volume of $2\,m^3$ to a volume of $1\,m^3$ at a constant pressure of $100\,N/m^2$. Then it is heated at constant volume by supplying $150\,J$ of energy. As a result,the internal energy of the gas
