A student records $\Delta Q, \Delta U \& \Delta W$ for a thermodynamic cycle $A$ $\rightarrow$ $B \rightarrow C \rightarrow A$. Certain entries are missing. Find correct entry in following options.
When an ideal gas in a cylinder was compressed isothermally by a piston, the work done on the gas was found to be $1.5 \times {10^4}\;joules$. During this process about
The $PV$ diagram shows four different possible reversible processes performed on a monatomic ideal gas. Process $A$ is isobaric (constant pressure). Process $B$ is isothermal (constant temperature). Process $C$ is adiabatic. Process $D$ is isochoric (constant volume). For which process(es) does the temperature of the gas decrease ?
A gas is compressed at a constant pressure of $50N/{m^2}$ from a volume of $10{m^3}$ to a volume of $4{m^3}$. Energy of $100 J$ then added to the gas by heating. Its internal energy is
One mole of an ideal gas at $300 \mathrm{~K}$ in thermal contact with surroundings expands isothermally from $1.0 \mathrm{~L}$ to $2.0 \mathrm{~L}$ against a constant pressure of $3.0 \mathrm{~atm}$. In this process, the change in entropy of surroundings $\left(\Delta S_{\text {surr }}\right)$ in $\mathrm{J} \mathrm{K}^{-1}$ is $(1 \mathrm{~L} \mathrm{~atm}=101.3 \mathrm{~J})$
An engine operates by taking $n\,moles$ of an ideal gas through the cycle $ABCDA$ shown in figure. The thermal efficiency of the engine is : (Take $C_v =1 .5\, R$, where $R$ is gas constant)
