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
A reversible heat engine converts one-fourth of the heat input into work. When the temperature of the sink is reduced by $52\, K$, its efficiency is doubled. The temperature in Kelvin of the source will be ...... .
The heat capacity of one mole an ideal is found to be $C_V=3 R(1+a R T) / 2$, where $a$ is a constant. The equation obeyed by this gas during a reversible adiabatic expansion is
An ideal Carnot heat engine with an efficiency of $30\%$.It absorbs heat from a hot reservoir at $727^o C$. The temperature of the cold reservoir is .... $^oC$
$200\,g$ water is heated from $40\,^oC$ to $60\,^oC.$ Ignoring the slight expansion of water, the change in its internal energy is close to ...... $kJ$ (Given specific heat of water $=4184\,J/kgK$ )
In a thermodynamic process pressure of a fixed mass of a gas is changed in such a manner that the gas releases $20 \,J$ of heat when $8 \,J$ of work was done on the gas. If the initial internal energy of the gas was $30 \,J$, then the final internal energy will be ........ $J$
