An ideal gas goes through a reversible cycle $a \to b \to c \to d$ and has the $V - T$ diagram shown below. Processes $d \to a$ and $b \to c$ are adiabatic. The corresponding $P - V$ diagram for the process is (all figures are schematic and not drawn to scale):

In changing the state of a gas adiabatically from an equilibrium state $A$ to another equilibrium state $B$,an amount of work equal to $22.3 \; J$ is done on the system. If the gas is taken from state $A$ to $B$ via a process in which the net heat absorbed by the system is $9.35 \; cal$,how much is the net work done (in $J$) by the system in the latter case? (Take $1 \; cal = 4.19 \; J$)

When an ideal gas is heated at constant pressure,what percentage of the heat supplied is used to perform external work? $(\gamma = 5/3)$

Draw $P-V$ curves for isothermal and adiabatic processes of an ideal gas.

Three processes compose a thermodynamic cycle shown in the $PV$ diagram. Process $1\rightarrow 2$ takes place at constant temperature. Process $2\rightarrow 3$ takes place at constant volume,and process $3\rightarrow 1$ is adiabatic. During the complete cycle,the total amount of work done is $10\,J$. During process $2\rightarrow 3$,the internal energy decreases by $20\,J$ and during process $3\rightarrow 1$,$20\,J$ of work is done on the system. How much heat is added to the system during process $1\rightarrow 2$ (in $,J$)?

Heat is supplied to a diatomic gas at constant pressure. The ratio of $\Delta Q: \Delta U: \Delta W$ is
[Given $\rightarrow \Delta Q=$ heat supplied,$\Delta U=$ change in internal energy,$\Delta W$ $=$ work done]
