$\gamma=\frac{1}{V}\left(\frac{d V}{d T}\right) $

$ \mathrm{PT}^2=\text { constant } $

$ \frac{\mathrm{nRT}}{\mathrm{V}} \mathrm{T}^2=\text { constant } $

$ \therefore \quad \gamma=\frac{3}{\mathrm{~T}}$

    $n$ mole a perfect gas undergoes a cyclic process $ABCA$ (see figure) consisting of the following processes.

    $A \rightarrow B :$ Isothermal expansion at temperature $T$ so that the volume is doubled from $V _{1}$ to $V _{2}=2 V _{1}$ and pressure changes from $P _{1}$ to $P _{2}$

    $B \rightarrow C :$ Isobaric compression at pressure $P _{2}$ to initial volume $V _{1}$

    $C \rightarrow A$ : Isochoric change leading to change of pressure from $P _{2}$ to $P _{1}$

    Total workdone in the complete cycle $ABCA$ is

    Starting at temperature $300\; \mathrm{K},$ one mole of an ideal diatomic gas $(\gamma=1.4)$ is first compressed adiabatically from volume $\mathrm{V}_{1}$ to $\mathrm{V}_{2}=\frac{\mathrm{V}_{1}}{16} .$ It is then allowed to expand isobarically to volume $2 \mathrm{V}_{2} \cdot$ If all the processes are the quasi-static then the final temperature of the gas (in $\left. \mathrm{K}\right)$ is (to the nearest integer)

    Given below are two statements : one is labelled as Assertion A and the other is labelled as Reason $R$. Assertion A : Efficiency of a reversible heat engine will be highest at $-273^{\circ} C$ temperature of cold reservoir.

    Reason $R$ : The efficiency of Carnot's engine depends not only on temperature of cold reservoir but it depends on the temperature of hot reservoir too and is given as $\eta=\left(1-\frac{ T _2}{ T _1}\right)$.

    In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below
