    A thermally isolated cylindrical closed vessel of height $8 m$ is kept vertically. It is divided into two equal parts by a diathermic $($perfect thermal conductor$)$ frictionless partition of mass $8.3 kg$. Thus the partition is held initially at a distance of $4 m$ from the top, as shown in the schematic figure below. Each of the two parts of the vessel contains $0.1$ mole of an ideal gas at temperature $300 K$. The partition is now released and moves without any gas leaking from one part of the vessel to the other. When equilibrium is reached, the distance of the partition from the top $($in $m )$ will be $. . . . . ($take the acceleration due to gravity $=10 ms ^{-2}$ and the universal gas constant $=8.3 J mol ^{-1} K ^{-1} ).$

    An ideal monoatomic gas is confined in a horizontal cylinder by a spring loaded piston (as shown in the figure). Initially the gas is at temperature $T _1$, pressure $P_1$ and volume $V_1$ and the spring is in its relaxed state. The gas is then heated very slowly to temperature $T_2$, pressure $P _2$ and volume $V _2$. During this process the piston moves out by a distance $x$. Ignoring the friction between the piston and the cylinder, the correct statement$(s)$ is(are)

    $(A)$ If $V_2=2 V_1$ and $T_2=3 T_1$, then the energy stored in the spring is $\frac{1}{4} P_1 V_1$

    $(B)$ If $V_2=2 V_1$ and $T_2=3 T_1$, then the change in internal energy is $3 P_1 V_1$

    $(C)$ If $V_2=3 V_1$ and $T_2=4 T_1$, then the work done by the gas is $\frac{7}{3} P_1 V_1$

    $(D)$ If $V_2=3 V_1$ and $T_2=4 T_1$, then the heat supplied to the gas is $\frac{17}{6} P_1 V_1$

    The three processes in a thermodynamic cycle shown in the figure are : Process $1 \rightarrow 2$ is isothermal; Process $2 \rightarrow 3$ is isochoric (volume remains constant); Process $3 \rightarrow 1$ is adiabatic. The total work done by the ideal gas in this cycle is $10 \,J$. The internal energy decreases by $20 \,J$ in the isochoric process. The work done by the gas in the adiabatic process is $-20 \,J$. The heat added to the system in the isothermal process is .............. $J$
