The initial pressure and volume of a gas are $P$ and $V$ respectively. First, it is expanded isothermally to a volume $4V$ and then compressed adiabatically to a volume $V$. The final pressure of the gas will be (given $\gamma = 3/2$): (in $P$)

    $1$
  • B
    $2$
  • C
    $4$

Two gases $A$ and $B$ are filled at the same pressure in separate cylinders with movable pistons of radius $r_A$ and $r_B$,respectively. On supplying an equal amount of heat to both the systems reversibly under constant pressure,the pistons of gas $A$ and $B$ are displaced by $16 \ cm$ and $9 \ cm$,respectively. If the change in their internal energy is the same,then the ratio $\frac{r_A}{r_B}$ is equal to

$A$ certain amount of gas is taken through a cyclic process $(A-B-C-D-A)$ that has two isobars, one isochore, and one isothermal process. The cycle can be represented on a $P-V$ indicator diagram as:
