Six moles of an ideal gas perfomrs a cycle shown in figure. If the temperature are $T_A = 600 K, T_B = 800 K, T_C = 2200 K \,and\, T_D = 1200 K$, the work done per cycle is ..... $kJ$
A$20$
B$30 $
C$40 $

C$40 $
c (c) Processes $A$ to $B$ and $C$ to $D$ are parts of straight line graphs of the form $y = mx$
Also $P = \frac{{\mu R}}{V}T$ ($\mu = 6$)
==> $P \propto T.$ So volume remains constant for the graphs $AB$ and $CD$
So no work is done during processes for $A$ to $B$ and $C$ to $D$ i.e., $W_{AB} = W_{CD} = 0$ and $W_{BC} = P_2(V_C -V_B) = µR (TC -TB)$
$= 6R (2200 -800) = 6R \times 1400 J$
Also $ W_{DA} = P_1 (V_A -V_D) = µR(T_A -T_B)$
$= 6R (600 -1200)= -6R \times 600 J$
Hence work done in complete cycle
$W = W_{AB} + W_{BC} + W_{CD} + W_{DA}$
$= 0 + 6R \times 1400 + 0 -6R \times 600$
$= 6R \times 900 = 6 \times 8.3 \times 800 ≈ 40 kJ$

The state of an ideal gas was changed isobarically. The graph depicts three such isobaric lines. Which of the following is true about the pressures of the gas?
A sample of an ideal gas undergoes an isothermal expansion. If $d Q, d U$ and $d W$ represent the amount of heat supplied, the change in internal energy and the work done respectively, then
$1 \,\,kg$ of a gas does $20\,\, kJ$ of work and receives $16 \,\,kJ$ of heat when it is expanded between two states. $A$ second kind of expansion can be found between the initial and final state which requires a heat input of $9\,\, kJ$. The work done by the gas in the second expansion is ....... $kJ$
For an ideal heat engine, the temperature of the source is $127\,^{\circ} C$. In order to have $60\, \%$ efficiency the temperature of the sink should be $........\,{ }^{\circ} C$. (Round off to the Nearest Integer)
Two gases have the same initial pressure, volume and temperatue. They expand to the same final volume, one adiabatically and the other isothermally, if the two gases are compressed to the same final volume
