2. 1800 J
3. 450 J
4. 2700 J
For the indicator diagram given below, which of the following is not correct?

2. | Net work is done on the gas in cycle I. |
3. | Work done is positive for cycle I. |
4. | Work done is positive for cycle II. |
A sink, that is, the system where heat is rejected, is essential for the conversion of heat into work. From which law does the above inference follow?
1. Zeroth
2. First
3. Second
4. Third
The ratio of the relative rise in pressure for adiabatic compression to that for isothermal compression is
1.
2.
3. 1-
4.
In a given process, dW = 0, dQ < 0, then for the gas:
1. Temperature increases
2. Volume decreases
3. Pressure decreases
4. Pressure increases
A gas is compressed isothermally to half its initial volume. The same gas is compressed separately through an adiabatic process until its volume is again reduced to half. Then:
1. | compressing the gas through an adiabatic process will require more work to be done. |
2. | compressing the gas isothermally or adiabatically will require the same amount of work to be done. |
3. | which of the case (whether compression through isothermal or through the adiabatic process) requires more work to be done will depend upon the atomicity of the gas. |
4. | compressing the gas isothermally will require more work to be done. |
Figure below shows two paths that may be taken by a gas to go from a state A to a state C. In process AB, 400 J of heat is added to the system and in process BC, 100 J of heat is added to the system. The heat absorbed by the system in the process AC will be-
(a) 380 J
(b) 500 J
(c) 460 J
(d) 300 J
An ideal gas is compressed to half its initial volume by means of several processes.
Which of the following processes results in the maximum work being done on the gas?
1. Adiabatic
2. Isobaric
3. Isochoric
4. Isothermal
The coefficient of performance of a refrigerator is 5. If the temperature inside freezer is -20°C, the temperature of the surroundings to which it rejects heat is -
1. 31°C
2. 41°C
3. 11°C
4. 21°C
An ideal gas goes from state \(A\) to state \(B\) via three different processes, as indicated in the \(P\text-V\) diagram. If \(Q_1,Q_2,Q_3\) indicates the heat absorbed by the gas along the three processes and \(\Delta U_1, \Delta U_2, \Delta U_3\) indicates the change in internal energy along the three processes respectively, then:
1. | \({Q}_1>{Q}_2>{Q}_3 \) and \(\Delta {U}_1=\Delta {U}_2=\Delta {U}_3\) |
2. | \({Q}_3>{Q}_2>{Q}_1\) and \(\Delta {U}_1=\Delta {U}_2=\Delta {U}_3\) |
3. | \({Q}_1={Q}_2={Q}_3\) and \(\Delta {U}_1>\Delta {U}_2>\Delta {U}_3\) |
4. | \({Q}_3>{Q}_2>{Q}_1\) and \(\Delta {U}_1>\Delta {U}_2>\Delta {U}_3\) |
