$A$ gas may expand either adiabatically or isothermally. $A$ number of $P-V$ curves are drawn for the two processes over different ranges of pressure and volume. It will be found that:

  • A
    An adiabatic curve and an isothermal curve may intersect.
  • B
    Two adiabatic curves do not intersect.
  • C
    Two isothermal curves do not intersect.
  • D

Two moles of a triatomic gas $\left(\gamma = \frac{4}{3}\right)$ at temperature $327^{\circ} C$ expands adiabatically such that its volume becomes $8$ times its initial volume. Later, the temperature of the gas is doubled in an isochoric process. The total work done in the two processes is ($R$ - universal gas constant). (in $R$)

An ideal monoatomic gas is carried along the cycle $ABCDA$ as shown in the figure. The total heat absorbed during this process is (in $p_0 V_0$)

Three processes form a thermodynamic cycle as shown on the $P-V$ diagram for an ideal gas. Process $1 \rightarrow 2$ takes place at a constant temperature $(300 \ K)$. Process $2 \rightarrow 3$ takes place at a constant volume. During this process,$40 \ J$ of heat leaves the system. Process $3 \rightarrow 1$ is adiabatic and the temperature $T_3$ is $275 \ K$. The work done by the gas during the process $3 \rightarrow 1$ is ..... $J$.

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

$A$ cyclic process $ABCA$ is shown in the $PT$ diagram. When presented on a $PV$ diagram,it would be:
