$A$ gas is expanded from an initial state to a final state along a path on a $P-V$ diagram. The path consists of $(i)$ an isothermal expansion of work $50 J$,$(ii)$ an adiabatic expansion,and $(iii)$ an isothermal expansion of work $20 J$. If the internal energy of the gas is changed by $-30 J$,then the work done by the gas during the adiabatic expansion is: (in $J$)

  • A
    $40$
  • B
    $100$
  • C
    $30$
  • D
    $20$

$A$ small particle of mass $m$ moving inside a heavy, hollow and straight tube along the tube axis undergoes elastic collision at two ends. The tube has no friction and it is closed at one end by a flat surface while the other end is fitted with a heavy movable flat piston as shown in the figure. When the distance of the piston from the closed end is $L = L_0$, the particle speed is $v = v_0$. The piston is moved inward at a very low speed $V$ such that $V \ll \frac{dL}{L} v_0$, where $dL$ is the infinitely small displacement of the piston. Which of the following statement(s) is/are correct?
$(1)$ The rate at which the particle strikes the piston is $v / (2L)$
$(2)$ After each collision with the piston, the particle speed increases by $2V$
$(3)$ The particle's kinetic energy increases by a factor of $4$ when the piston is moved inward from $L_0$ to $L_0 / 2$
$(4)$ If the piston moves inward by $dL$, the particle speed increases by $v \frac{dL}{L}$
