A
Continuously increases
a (a) As the volume is continuously increasing and the work of expansion is always positive, so the work done by the system continuously increases.

A thermodynamic system is taken from state $A$ to $B$ along $ACB$ and is brought back to $A$ along $BDA$ as shown in the $PV$ diagram. The net work done during the complete cycle is given by the area
Heat energy of $735\,J$ is given to a diatomic gas allowing the gas to expand at constant pressure. Each gas molecule rotates around an internal axis but do not oscillate. The increase in the internal energy of the gas will be $..........\,J$
How much work to be done in decreasing the volume of and ideal gas by an amount of $2.4 \times {10^{ - 4}}{m^3}$ at normal temperature and constant normal pressure of .......$joule$ $1 \times {10^5}N/{m^2}$
Consider a spherical shell of radius $R$ at temperature $T$. The black body radiation inside it can be considered as an ideal gas of photons with internal energy per unit volume$E=$ $\frac{U}{V} \propto {T^4}$ and pressure $P = \frac{1}{3}\left( {\frac{U}{V}} \right)$ If the shell now undergoes an adiabatic expansion the relation between $T$ and $R$ is
Initial pressure and volume of a gas are $P$ and $V$ respectively. First it is expanded isothermally to volume $4V$ and then compressed adiabatically to volume $V$ . The final pressure of gas will be (given $\gamma = 3/2$ )
