    A thermally isolated cylindrical closed vessel of height $8 m$ is kept vertically. It is divided into two equal parts by a diathermic $($perfect thermal conductor$)$ frictionless partition of mass $8.3 kg$. Thus the partition is held initially at a distance of $4 m$ from the top, as shown in the schematic figure below. Each of the two parts of the vessel contains $0.1$ mole of an ideal gas at temperature $300 K$. The partition is now released and moves without any gas leaking from one part of the vessel to the other. When equilibrium is reached, the distance of the partition from the top $($in $m )$ will be $. . . . . ($take the acceleration due to gravity $=10 ms ^{-2}$ and the universal gas constant $=8.3 J mol ^{-1} K ^{-1} ).$

    A thermally insulating cylinder has a thermally insulating and frictionless movable partition in the middle, as shown in the figure below. On each side of the partition, there is one mole of an ideal gas, with specific heat at constant volume, $C_v=2 R$. Here, $R$ is the gas constant. Initially, each side has a volume $V_0$ and temperature $T_0$. The left side has an electric heater, which is turned on at very low power to transfer heat $Q$ to the gas on the left side. As a result the partition moves slowly towards the right reducing the right side volume to $V_0 / 2$. Consequently, the gas temperatures on the left and the right sides become $T_L$ and $T_R$, respectively. Ignore the changes in the temperatures of the cylinder, heater and the partition.

    ($1$) The value of $\frac{T_R}{T_0}$ is

    $(A)$ $\sqrt{2}$ $(B)$ $\sqrt{3}$ $(C)$ $2$ $(D)$ $3$

    ($2$) The value of $\frac{Q}{R T_0}$ is
