$A$ 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:

  • A
    the rate of increase in internal energy is $\frac{5}{2} R(\alpha+\beta t)$
  • B
    the current flowing in the element is $\sqrt{\frac{5}{2 r} R(\alpha+\beta t)}$
  • C
    the piston moves upwards with constant acceleration
  • D
    the piston moves upwards with constant speed

Answer the following by appropriately matching the lists based on the information given in the paragraph.
In a thermodynamics process on an ideal monatomic gas,the infinitesimal heat absorbed by the gas is given by $T \Delta X$,where $T$ is the temperature of the system and $\Delta X$ is the infinitesimal change in a thermodynamic quantity $X$ of the system. For a mole of monatomic ideal gas,$X = \frac{3}{2} R \ln \left(\frac{T}{T_A}\right) + R \ln \left(\frac{V}{V_A}\right)$. Here,$R$ is the gas constant,$V$ is the volume of the gas,$T_A$ and $V_A$ are constants.

The efficiency of a heat engine is $\eta$ and the coefficient of performance of a refrigerator is $\beta$. Then:

Two samples of gas $A$ and $B$ are initially at the same pressure and temperature. They are compressed from volume $V$ to $V/2$. If $A$ is compressed isothermally and $B$ is compressed adiabatically,then the final pressure of $A$ is:
