    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 $\frac{17}{6} P_1 V_1$

    A gas is enclosed in a cylinder with a movable frictionless piston. Its initikl thermodynamic state at pressure $P_i=10^5 \mathrm{~Pa}$ and volume $V_i=10^{-3} \mathrm{~m}^3$ chanıes to i final state at $P_f=(1 / 32) \times 10^5 \mathrm{~Pa}$ and $V_f=8 \times 10^{-3} \mathrm{~m}^3$ in an adiabatic quasi-static process, such that $P^3 V^5=$ constant. Consider another thermodynamic process that brings the system from the same initial state to the same final state in two steps: an isobaric expansion at $P$, followed by an isochoric (isovolumetric) process at volume $V_f$. The amount of heat supplied to the system in the two-step process is approximately
