(a) Heat given $\Delta Q = 40 J$ and Work done $\Delta W = 30 J$
$⇒$ $\Delta U = \Delta Q - \Delta W = 40 -30 = 10 J.$

A hypothetical gas expands adiabatically such that its volume changes from $8$ litres to $27$ litres. If the ratio of final pressure of the gas to initial pressure of the gas is $\frac{16}{81}$. Then the ratio of $\frac{C_P}{C_V}$ will be
A litre of dry air at $STP$ expands adiabatically to a volume of $3$ litres. If $\gamma=1.40,$ the work done by air is$(3^{1.4}=4.6555)$ [Take air to be an ideal gas $]$
A constant amount of an ideal gas undergoes the cyclic process $A B C A$ in the $p-V$ graph shown below. The path $B C$ is an isothermal. The work done by the gas during one complete cycle, beginning and ending at $A$ is nearly .......... $\,kJ$
Work done by a system under isothermal change from a volume ${V_1}$ to ${V_2}$ for a gas which obeys Vander Waal's equation $(V - \beta n)\,\left( {P + \frac{{\alpha {n^2}}}{V}} \right) = nRT$
