In a thermodynamic system,$\Delta U$ represents the increase in internal energy and $W$ represents the work done by the system. Which of the following statements is true?

In which thermodynamic process is there no exchange of heat between the system and the surroundings?

$A$ monoatomic ideal gas,initially at temperature $T_1$,is enclosed in a cylinder fitted with a frictionless piston. The gas is allowed to expand adiabatically to a temperature $T_2$ by releasing the piston suddenly. If $L_1$ and $L_2$ are the lengths of the gas column before and after expansion respectively,then $T_1/T_2$ is given by

If $\gamma$ denotes the ratio of two specific heats of a gas, the ratio of the slopes of adiabatic and isothermal $PV$ curves at their point of intersection is:

An engine takes in $5$ moles of air at $20\,^{\circ}C$ and $1\,atm$,and compresses it adiabatically to $1/10^{\text{th}}$ of the original volume. Assuming air to be a diatomic ideal gas made up of rigid molecules,the change in its internal energy during this process is $X\,kJ$. The value of $X$ to the nearest integer is
