An ideal gas expands isothermally from a volume ${V_1}$ to ${V_2}$ and then compressed to original volume ${V_1}$adiabatically. Initial pressure is ${P_1}$ and final pressure is ${P_3}$. The total work done is $W$. Then
A${P_3} > {P_1},\,\,W > 0$
B${P_3} < {P_1},\,\,W < 0$
C${P_3} > {P_1},\,\,W < 0$
D${P_3} = {P_1},\,\,W = 0$

C${P_3} > {P_1},\,\,W < 0$
c (c)From graph it is clear that ${P_3} > {P_1}$.
Since area under adiabatic process $(BCED)$ is greater than that of isothermal process $(ABDE)$. Therefore net work done
$W = {W_i} + ( - {W_A})$$⇒$ $W < 0$

$A$ reversible engine converts one-sixth of the heat input into work. When the temperature of the sink is reduced by $ 62^oC$, the efficiency of the engine is doubled. The temperatures of the source and sink are
An engine operates by taking a monatomic ideal gas through the cycle shown in the figure. The percentage efficiency of the engine is close to $.......\%$
An ideal gas at atmospheric pressure is adiabatically compressed so that its density becomes $32$ times of its initial value. If the final pressure of gas is $128$ atmosphers, the value of $\gamma$ the gas is
In a Carnot engine, when ${T_2} = {0^o}C$ and ${T_1} = {200^o}C,$ its efficiency is ${\eta _1}$ and when ${T_1} = 0{\,^o}C$ and ${T_2} = - 200{\,^o}C$, Its efficiency is ${\eta _2}$, then what is ${\eta _1}/{\eta _2}$
A Carnot engine operates between two reservoirs of temperatures $900\; \mathrm{K}$ and $300 \;\mathrm{K}$ The engine performs $1200\; \mathrm{J}$ of work per cycle. The heat energy (in $\mathrm{J}$ ) delivered by the engine to the low temperature reservoir, in a cycle. is
A Carnot engine take $5000 \,k\,cal$ of heat from a reservoir at $727\,^{\circ}C$ and gives heat to a $\operatorname{sink}$ at $127\,^{\circ}C$. The work done by the engine is $.......... \times 10^{6}\,J$
Consider the efficiency of Carnot's engine is given by $\eta=\frac{\alpha \beta}{\sin \theta} \log _{e} \frac{\beta x}{k T}$, where $\alpha$ and $\beta$ are constants. If $T$ is temperature, $k$ is Boltzman constant, $\theta$ is angular displacement and $x$ has the dimensions of length. Then, choose the incorrect option.
