Question
A thermodynamic system is taken from an original state $D$ to an intermediate state $E$ by the linear process shown in the figure. Its volume is then reduced to the original volume from $E$ to $F$ by an isobaric process. The total work done by the gas from $D$ to $E$ to $F$ will be $......J$

Answer

$W _{ DE }=\frac{1}{2}(600+300) 3\,J$

$=1350\,J$

$W _{ EF }=-300 \times 3=-900\,J$

$W _{ DEF }=450\,J$

Two men are walking along a horizontal straight line in the same direction. The man in front walks at a speed $1.0 m s ^{-1}$ and the man behind walks at a speed $2.0 ms ^{-1}$. A third man is standing at a height $12 m$ above the same horizontal line such that all three men are in a vertical plane. The two walking men are blowing identical whistles which emit a sound of frequency $1430 Hz$. The speed of sound in air is $330 m s ^{-1}$. At the instant, when the moving men are $10 m$ apart, the stationary man is equidistant from them. The frequency of beats in $Hz$, heard by the stationary man at this instant, is. . . . .

$A$ flexible chain of length $2m$ and mass $1kg$ initially held in vertical position such that its lower end just touches a horizontal surface, is released from rest at time $t = 0$. Assuming that any part of chain which strikes the plane immediately comes to rest and that the portion of chain lying on horizontal surface does not from any heap, the height of its centre of mass above surface at any instant $t = 1/\sqrt 5$ befor it completely comes to rest) is ................ $\mathrm{m}$
