(N/A) $1.$ In a cyclic process,the system returns to its initial state. Since internal energy is a state function,the change in internal energy is $0$.
$2.$ The internal energy of a gas increases when work is done on the gas in an adiabatic process (where $Q = 0$,$\Delta U = -W$).
$3.$ For an adiabatic process,$T_1 V_1^{\gamma-1} = T_2 V_2^{\gamma-1}$. Given $V_2 = V_1 / 32$ and $\gamma = 1.4$,we have $T_2 = T_1 (V_1 / V_2)^{\gamma-1} = T_1 (32)^{1.4-1} = T_1 (32)^{0.4} = T_1 (2^5)^{2/5} = T_1 \times 2^2 = 4 T_1$.
$4.$ The triple point of water occurs at a pressure of $4.58 \text{ mm Hg}$ and a temperature of $273.16 \text{ K}$.

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

Suppose an ideal gas ($n$ moles) undergoes an expansion process $P = f(V)$ which passes through the point $(V_0, P_0)$. If the slope of the curve $P = f(V)$ is greater than the slope of the adiabatic curve passing through $(V_0, P_0)$,show that the gas absorbs heat at $(V_0, P_0)$.

An ideal gas,initially in state $(P_{12}, V_1, T_1)$ is expanded isobarically to $(P_{12}, V_2, T_2)$,then adiabatically to $(P_{34}, V_3, T_3)$. It is then contracted isobarically to $(P_{34}, V_4, T_4)$ and finally adiabatically back to the initial state. The efficiency of this cycle is

One mole of a monatomic ideal gas is taken along two cyclic processes $E \rightarrow F \rightarrow G \rightarrow E$ and $E \rightarrow F \rightarrow H \rightarrow E$ as shown in the $PV$ diagram. The processes involved are purely isochoric,isobaric,isothermal,or adiabatic. Match the paths in List-$I$ with the magnitudes of the work done in List-$II$ and select the correct answer using the codes given below the lists.
List-$I$List-$II$
$P. \quad G \rightarrow E$$1. \quad 160 P_0 V_0 \ln 2$
$Q. \quad G \rightarrow H$$2. \quad 36 P_0 V_0$
$R. \quad F \rightarrow H$$3. \quad 24 P_0 V_0$

The volume $V$ of a given mass of monoatomic gas changes with temperature $T$ according to the relation $V = KT^{2/3}$. The work done when temperature changes by $90\,K$ will be $xR$. The value of $x$ is $[R = \text{universal gas constant}]$
