An engineer claims to have made an engine delivering $10 \ kW$ of power with a fuel consumption of $1 \ g/s$. The calorific value of the fuel is $2 \ kcal/g$. Is the claim of the engineer valid?

$A$ gas is compressed isothermally to half its initial volume. The same gas is compressed separately through an adiabatic process until its volume is again reduced to half. Then

An ideal gas expands isothermally from volume $V_1$ to volume $V_2$. It is then compressed to the original volume $V_1$ adiabatically. If $p_1$ and $p_2$ represent the initial pressure and final pressure respectively,and $W$ represents the net work done by the gas during the entire process,then:

In the $p-V$ diagram below,the dashed curved line is an adiabat. For a process that is described by a straight line joining two points $X$ and $Y$ on the adiabat (solid line in the diagram),heat is (Hint: consider the variation in temperature from $X$ to $Y$ along the straight line)

Consider two containers $A$ and $B$ containing monoatomic gases at the same Pressure $(P)$,Volume $(V)$ and Temperature $(T)$. The gas in $A$ is compressed isothermally to $\frac{1}{8}$ of its original volume while the gas $B$ is compressed adiabatically to $\frac{1}{8}$ of its original volume. The ratio of final pressure of gas in $B$ to that of gas in $A$ is ...........

The change in internal energy of a given mass of a gas,when its volume changes from $V$ to $3V$ at constant pressure $P$,is (where $\gamma$ is the ratio of the specific heat capacities of the gas).
