(N/A) $1$. Work to Heat: In winter,when we rub our palms together,the mechanical work done in rubbing is converted into thermal energy (heat),which makes our palms feel warmer.
$2$. Heat to Work: In a steam engine,the thermal energy (heat) released from steam is used to perform mechanical work by pushing pistons,which in turn rotate the wheels of the train.

An ideal monoatomic gas is carried around the cycle $ABCDA$ as shown in the figure. The efficiency of the gas cycle is

In a certain thermodynamical process,the pressure of a gas depends on its volume as $P = kV^{3}$. The work done when the temperature changes from $100^{\circ}C$ to $300^{\circ}C$ will be .......... $nR$,where $n$ denotes the number of moles of a gas.

$A$ monatomic gas of volume $V$ and pressure $P$ expands isothermally to a volume $27 V$ and then is compressed adiabatically to a volume $V$. The final pressure of the gas is: (in $P$)

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
