    Three samples of the same gas $A, B$ and $C(\gamma = 3/2)$ have initially equal volume. Now the volume of each sample is doubled. The process is adiabatic for $A$ isobaric for $B $ and isothermal for $C$. If the final pressures are equal for all three samples, the ratio of their initial pressures are

    One mole of a monoatomic ideal gas $\left(c_{ V }=\frac{3}{2} R \right)$ undergoes a cycle where it first goes isochorically from the state $\left(\frac{3}{2} P _0, V _0\right)$ to $\left( P _0, V _0\right)$, and then is isobarically contracted to the volume $\frac{1}{2} V _0$. It is then taken back to the initial state by a path which is a quarter ellipse on the $P - V$ diagram. The efficiency of this cycle is

    An ideal gas expands from volume $V_1$ to $V_2$. This may be achieved by either of the three processes: isobaric, isothermal and adiabatic. Let $\Delta U$ be the change in internal energy of the gas, $Q$ be the quantity of heat added to the system and $W$ be the work done by the system on the gas. Identify which of the following statements is false for $\Delta U$?
