Three moles of an ideal gas $\left( {{C_P} = \frac{7}{2}R} \right)$ at pressure ${P_A}$ and temperature ${T_A}$ is isothermally expanded to twice its initial volume. It is then compressed at constant pressure to its original volume. Finally, the gas is compressed at constant volume to its original pressure ${P_A}.$ The correct $P-V$ and $P-T$ diagrams indicating the process are

Three samples of the same gas $A, B$ and $C$ $(\gamma = 3/2)$ have initially equal volume. Now the volume of each sample is doubled. The process is adiabatic for $A$,isobaric for $B$,and isothermal for $C$. If the final pressures are equal for all three samples,the ratio of their initial pressures is:

Five moles of an ideal gas has pressure $p_0$,volume $V_0$,and temperature $T_0$. The gas is expanded to volume $3V_0$ along a path such that the pressure $p$ changes as a function of volume $V$ as $p = p_0(V/V_0)$. The pressure is then reduced to $p_0$ while maintaining constant volume. Finally,the gas undergoes an isobaric compression until the volume and temperature return to $V_0$ and $T_0$,respectively. The total work done by the gas during the entire process is:
