The pressure of a gas changes linearly with volume from $A$ to $B$ as shown in figure. If no heat is supplied to or extracted from the gas then change in the internal energy of the gas will be $............\,J$
In an adiabatic process where in pressure is increased by $\frac{2}{3}\% $ if $\frac{{{C_p}}}{{{C_v}}} = \frac{3}{2},$ then the volume decreases by about
An insulator container contains $4\, moles$ of an ideal diatomic gas at temperature $T.$ Heat $Q$ is supplied to this gas, due to which $2 \,moles$ of the gas are dissociated into atoms but temperature of the gas remains constant. Then
A fixed amount of a gas undergoes a thermodynamic process as shown such that heat interaction along path $B \to C \to A$ is equal to the work done by the gas along path $A \to B \to C$. Then process $A \to B$ is :-
In a thermodynamic process pressure of a fixed mass of a gas is changed in such a manner that the gas releases $20 \,J$ of heat when $8 \,J$ of work was done on the gas. If the initial internal energy of the gas was $30 \,J$, then the final internal energy will be ........ $J$
