The $P-V$ diagram of a system undergoing thermodynamic transformation is shown in figure. The work done on the system in going from $A → B → C$ is $50 J$ and $ 20\, cal$ heat is given to the system. The change in internal energy between $A$ and $C$ is ...... $J$
Work done $\Delta W = -50 J$ [As process is anticlockwise]
By first law of thermodynamics
==> $\Delta U = \Delta Q - \Delta W = 84 - ( - \,50)\, = 134J$

A polyatomic gas $\left( {\gamma = \frac{4}{3}} \right)$ is compressed to $\frac{1}{8}$ of its volume adiabatically. If its initial pressure is ${P_o}$, its new pressure will be
Adiabatic modulus of elasticity of a gas is $2.1 \times {10^5}N/{m^2}.$ What will be its isothermal modulus of elasticity $\left( {\frac{{{C_p}}}{{{C_v}}} = 1.4} \right)$
$1\,kg$ of water at $100\, ^{\circ}C$ is converted into steam at $100^{\circ}\,C$ by boiling at atmospheric pressure. The volume of water changes from $1.00 \times 10^{-3}\,m ^3$ as a liquid to $1.671\,m ^3$ as steam. The change in internal energy of the system during the process will be $........kJ$ (Given latent heat of vaporisaiton $=2257\,kJ / kg$. Atmospheric pressure $=1 \times 10^5\,Pa$ )
A vertical cylinder with heat-conducting walls is closed at the bottom and is fitted with a smooth light piston. It contains one mole of an ideal gas. The temperature of the gas is always equal to the surrounding’s temperature, $T_0$. The piston is moved up slowly to increase the volume of the gas to $\eta$ times. Which of the following is incorrect?
In a process, temperature and volume of one mole of an ideal monoatomic gas are varied according to the relation $VT = K$, where $I$ is a constant. In this process the temperature of the gas is increased by $\Delta T$. The amount of heat absorbed by gas is ($R$ is gas constant)
For a thermodynamic process $\delta Q = -50$ $calorie$ and $W = -20$ $calorie$ . If the initial internal energy is $-30$ $calorie$ then final internal energy will be ....... $calorie$
$0.08 \mathrm{~kg}$ air is heated at constant volume through $5^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$. The specific heat of air at constant volume is $0.17 \mathrm{kcal} / \mathrm{kg}^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$ and $\mathrm{J}=4.18$ joule $/ \mathrm{cal}$. The change in its internal energy is approximately.
