Two cylinders $A$ and $B$ fitted with pistons contain equal number of moles of an ideal monoatomic gas at $400 \,K$. The piston of $A$ is free to move while that of $B$ is held fixed. The same amount of heat energy is given to the gas in each cylinder. If the rise in temperature of the gas in $A$ is $42 \,K$, what is the rise in temperature of the gas in $B$ (in $\,K$)? (Given $\gamma = 5/3$)

An ideal gas is subjected to a cyclic process involving four thermodynamic states. The amounts of heat $(Q)$ and work $(W)$ involved in each of these states are:
$Q_1 = 6000 \ J, Q_2 = -5500 \ J, Q_3 = -3000 \ J, Q_4 = 3500 \ J$
$W_1 = 2500 \ J, W_2 = -1000 \ J, W_3 = -1200 \ J, W_4 = x \ J$
The ratio of the net work done by the gas to the total heat absorbed by the gas is $\eta$. The values of $x$ and $\eta$ respectively are:

An ideal gas at pressure $P$ and volume $V$ is expanded to volume $2V$. Column $I$ represents the thermodynamic processes used during expansion. Column $II$ represents the work done during these processes in random order:
Column $I$Column $II$

$(q)$ isothermal$(y)$ $PV$
$(r)$ adiabatic$(z)$ $PV \ln 2$

The correct matching of column $I$ and column $II$ is given by:
