An ideal monoatomic gas is taken through a process $dQ = 2dU$. The molar heat capacity for the process is:

The figure shows a cylindrical adiabatic container of total volume $2V_0$ divided into two equal parts by a conducting piston (which is free to move). Each part contains an identical gas at pressure $P_0$. Initially,the temperature of the left and right parts is $4T_0$ and $T_0$ respectively. An external force is applied on the piston to keep it at rest. Find the value of the external force required when thermal equilibrium is reached. ($A =$ Area of the piston)
