$A$ resistance coil connected to an external battery is placed inside an adiabatic cylinder fitted with a frictionless piston and containing an ideal gas. $A$ current $i$ flows through the coil which has a resistance $R$. At what speed must the piston move upward in order that the temperature of the gas remains unchanged? Neglect atmospheric pressure.

$1.00 \ kg$ of liquid water at $100^{\circ} C$ undergoes a phase change into steam at $100^{\circ} C$ at $1.0 \ atm$ (take it to be $1.00 \times 10^5 \ Pa$). The initial volume of the liquid water was $1.00 \times 10^{-3} \ m^3$ which is changed to $2.001 \ m^3$ of steam. Find the change in the internal energy of the system. [Use heat of vaporization $\simeq 2000 \ kJ \ kg^{-1}$] (in $kJ$)

The $P-V$ diagram of a system undergoing a thermodynamic transformation is shown in the figure. The work done by the system in going from $A \to B \to C$ is $30 \ J$ and $40 \ J$ of heat is given to the system. The change in internal energy between $A$ and $C$ is ....... $J$.

The heat supplied to a gas at a constant pressure of $5 \times 10^5 \ Pa$ is $1000 \ kJ$. If the volume of gas changes from $1 \ m^3$ to $2.5 \ m^3$,then the change in internal energy of the gas is (in $kJ$)

The change in the internal energy of a mass of gas,when the volume changes from $V$ to $2V$ at constant pressure $P$,is (where $\gamma$ is the ratio of specific heat of gas at constant pressure to specific heat at constant volume):

$A$ cylinder with a piston of unit cross-sectional area contains one mole of an ideal gas as shown in the figure. $A$ spring of unstretched length $L$ and spring constant $K$ is connected between the piston and the bottom of the cylinder. Initially, the spring is unstretched and the gas is in equilibrium. When an amount of heat $Q$ is supplied to the gas, its volume changes from $V_0$ to $V_1$. Find:
$(a)$ The initial pressure of the system.
$(b)$ The final pressure of the system.
$(c)$ Using the first law of thermodynamics, find the relation between $Q, V_0, V_1, P_a$ and $K$.
