What are the differences between mechanics and thermodynamics?

An ideal gas is taken from state $1$ to state $2$ through optional paths $A, B, C$ and $D$ as shown in the $P-V$ diagram. Let $Q, W$ and $\Delta U$ represent the heat supplied,work done,and change in internal energy of the gas,respectively. Then:

The three processes in a thermodynamic cycle shown in the figure are: Process $1 \rightarrow 2$ is isothermal; Process $2 \rightarrow 3$ is isochoric (volume remains constant); Process $3 \rightarrow 1$ is adiabatic. The total work done by the ideal gas in this cycle is $10 \, J$. The internal energy decreases by $20 \, J$ in the isochoric process. The work done by the gas in the adiabatic process is $-20 \, J$. The heat added to the system in the isothermal process is .............. $J$.

Match the following $:-$
Column-$I$ Column-$II$
$(i)$ Adiabatic process $(a)$ Constant temperature
$(ii)$ Isolated system $(b)$ No exchange of energy and matter
$(iii)$ Isothermal change $(c)$ First law of thermodynamics
$(iv)$ Law of conservation of energy $(d)$ No transfer of heat only

Six moles of an ideal gas perform a cycle shown in the figure. If the temperatures are $T_A = 600\, K,$ $T_B = 800\, K,$ $T_C = 2200\, K,$ and $T_D = 1200\, K,$ then the work done per cycle is approximately ...... $kJ$.
