In a thermodynamic system,$\Delta U$ represents the increase in internal energy and $W$ represents the work done by the system. Which of the following statements is true?

An ideal gas at $27^{\circ}\text{C}$ is compressed adiabatically to $(8/27)$ of its original volume. If $\gamma = 5/3$, then the rise in temperature of a gas is (in $\text{ K}$)

$A$ monoatomic ideal gas, initially at temperature $T_{1}$, is enclosed in a cylinder fitted with a frictionless piston. The gas is allowed to expand adiabatically to a temperature $T_{2}$ by releasing the piston suddenly. If $l_{1}$ and $l_{2}$ are the lengths of the gas column before and after the expansion respectively, then the value of $\frac{T_{1}}{T_{2}}$ will be
