$A$ real gas within a closed chamber at $27^{\circ} C$ undergoes the cyclic process as shown in the figure. The gas obeys the $PV^3 = RT$ equation for the path $A$ to $B$. The net work done in the complete cycle is (assuming $R = 8 \, J/mol \cdot K$): (in $ \, J$)

  • A
    $225$
  • B
    $205$
  • C

Consider an engine that absorbs $130 \text{ cal}$ of heat from a hot reservoir and delivers $30 \text{ cal}$ of heat to a cold reservoir in each cycle. The engine also consumes $2 \text{ J}$ of energy in each cycle to overcome friction. If the engine works at $90 \text{ cycles per minute}$, what will be the maximum power delivered to the load (in $\text{ W}$)? [Assume the thermal equivalent of heat is $4.2 \text{ J/cal}$]

Initial pressure and volume of a gas are $P$ and $V$ respectively. First,it is expanded isothermally to volume $4V$ and then compressed adiabatically to volume $V$. The final pressure of the gas will be

The following figure shows the $P-T$ graph for four processes $A, B, C,$ and $D$. Select the correct alternative.

Two moles of monoatomic gas is expanded from $(P_0, V_0)$ to $(P_0, 2V_0)$ under isobaric condition. Let $\Delta Q_1$,$\Delta W_1$,and $\Delta U_1$ be the heat given to the gas,the work done by the gas,and the change in internal energy,respectively. Now,the monoatomic gas is replaced by a diatomic gas,with other conditions remaining the same. The corresponding values in this case are $\Delta Q_2$,$\Delta W_2$,and $\Delta U_2$. Then:
