An ideal heat engine working between temperature $T_1$ and $T_2 $ has an efficiency $\eta$, the new efficiency if both the source and sink temperature are doubled, will be
A real gas within a closed chamber at $27^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$ undergoes the cyclic process as shown in figure. The gas obeys $P V^3=\mathrm{RT}$ equation for the path $A$ to $B$. The net work done in the complete cycle is (assuming $R=8 \mathrm{~J} / \mathrm{molK}$ ):
A closed container is fully insulated from outside. One half of it is filled with an ideal gas $X$ separated by a plate Pfrom the other half $Y$ which contains a vacuum as shown in figure. When $P$ is removed, $X$ moves into $Y$. Which of the following statements is correct?
When $1\, kg$ of ice at $0^o C$ melts to water at $0^o C,$ the resulting change in its entropy, taking latent heat of ice to be $80\, cal/gm,$ is ...... $cal/K$
A thermally insulated container is divided into two parts by a screen. In one part the pressure and temperature are $P$ and $T$ for an ideal gas filled. In the second part it is vacuum. If now a small hole is created in the screen, then the temperature of the gas will
A Carnot engine has efficiency $25\%$ . It operates between reservoirs of constant temperature with temperature difference of $80\,K$ . What is the temperature of low temperature reservoir ...... $^oC$
