A gas for which $\gamma = 1.5$ is suddenly compressed to $\frac{1}{4}$ th of the initial volume. Then the ratio of the final to the initial pressure is
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 $=8.3 J mol ^{-1} K ^{-1} ).$
One mole of an ideal gas at temperature $T_1$ expends according to the law $\frac{P}{{{V^2}}} =a$ (constant). The work done by the gas till temperature of gas becomes $T_2 $ is
A Carnot engine, whose efficiency is $40\%$, takes in heat from a source maintained at a temperature of $500\ K$. It is desired to have an engine of efficiency $60\%$. Then, the intake temperature for the same exhaust (sink) temperature must be ....... $K$
A thermodynamic system is taken form an initial state $i$ with internal energy $U_1=100 \ J$ to the final state along two different paths iaf and ibf, as schematically shown in the fire. The work done by the system along the paths $af$, ib and bf are $W _{ af }=200 \ J , W _{ ID }=50 \ J$ and $W _{ br }=100 \ J$ respectively. The heat supplied to the system along the path iaf, ib and bf are $Q_{\mid a t l} Q_{b r}$ and $Q_{10}$ respectively. If the internal energy of the sytem in the state $b$ is $U_b=$ $200 \ J$ and $Q_{l a t}=500 \ J$, the ratio $Q_{b J} / Q_{10}$ is:
