One mole of an ideal monoatomic gas undergoes the process $A \rightarrow B \rightarrow C \rightarrow D \rightarrow A$ as shown in the graph. The work done during the process is

The $VT$ curve for a thermodynamic process is given. Identify the corresponding $PV$ curve.

An ideal monatomic gas of $n$ moles is taken through a cycle $W-X-Y-Z-W$ consisting of consecutive adiabatic and isobaric quasi-static processes,as shown in the schematic $V-T$ diagram. The volumes of the gas at $W, X,$ and $Y$ points are $64 \ cm^3, 125 \ cm^3,$ and $250 \ cm^3,$ respectively. If the absolute temperature of the gas $T_W$ at point $W$ is such that $nRT_W = 1 \ J$ ($R$ is the universal gas constant),then the amount of heat absorbed (in $J$) by the gas along the path $XY$ is $.....$

$A$ gas is enclosed in a cylinder with a movable frictionless piston. Its initial thermodynamic state at pressure $P_i = 10^5 \text{ Pa}$ and volume $V_i = 10^{-3} \text{ m}^3$ changes to a final state at $P_f = (1/32) \times 10^5 \text{ Pa}$ and $V_f = 8 \times 10^{-3} \text{ m}^3$ in an adiabatic quasi-static process, such that $P^3 V^5 = \text{constant}$. Consider another thermodynamic process that brings the system from the same initial state to the same final state in two steps: an isobaric expansion at $P_i$, followed by an isochoric (isovolumetric) process at volume $V_f$. The amount of heat supplied to the system in the two-step process is approximately: (in $\text{ J}$)
