    A gas takes part in two processes in which it is heated from the same initial state $1$ to the same final temperature. The processes are shown on the $P-V$ diagram by the straight line $1-2$ and $1-3$. $2$ and $3$ are the points on the same isothermal curve. $Q_1$ and $Q_2$ are the heat transfer along the two processes.

    One mole of an ideal gas undergoes two different cyclic processes I and II, as shown in the $P-V$ diagrams below. In cycle I, processes $a, b, c$ and $d$ are isobaric, isothermal, isobaric and isochoric, respectively. In cycle II, processes $a^{\prime}, b^{\prime}, c^{\prime}$ and $d^{\prime}$ are isothermal, isochoric, isobaric and isochoric, respectively. The total work done during cycle I is $W_I$ and that during cycle II is $W_{I I}$. The ratio $W_I / W_{I I}$ is . . . .

    A long cylindrical pipe of radius $20 \,cm$ is closed at its upper end and has an airtight piston of negligible mass as shown. When a $50 \,kg$ mass is attached to the other end of the piston, it moves down. If the air in the enclosure is cooled from temperature $T$ to $T-\Delta T$, the piston moves back to its original position. Then $\Delta T / T$ is close to (Assuming air to be an ideal gas, $g=10 \,m / s ^2$, atmospheric pressure is $10^5 \,Pa$ )
