If $R$ is the universal gas constant,the amount of heat needed to raise the temperature of $2$ moles of an ideal monoatomic gas from $273 \ K$ to $373 \ K$ when no work is done is equal to ...... $R$.

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

$A$ heating element of resistance $r$ is fitted inside an adiabatic cylinder which carries a frictionless piston of mass $m$ and cross-sectional area $A$. The cylinder contains one mole of a diatomic gas. The temperature of the gas varies with time $t$ as $T = \alpha t + \frac{1}{2} \beta t^2$ (where $\alpha$ and $\beta$ are constants),while the pressure remains constant. The atmospheric pressure above the piston is $P_0$. Then:

Starting at temperature $300 \; K,$ one mole of an ideal diatomic gas $(\gamma=1.4)$ is first compressed adiabatically from volume $V_{1}$ to $V_{2}=\frac{V_{1}}{16}.$ It is then allowed to expand isobarically to volume $2V_{2}.$ If all the processes are quasi-static,then the final temperature of the gas (in $K$) is (to the nearest integer):
