An ideal gas at initial temperature $T_0$ and initial volume $V_0$ is expanded adiabatically to a volume $2 V_0$. The gas is then expanded isothermally to a volume $5 V_0$ and thereafter compressed adiabatically so that the temperature of the gas becomes again $T_0$. If the final volume of the gas is $\alpha V_0$, then the value of constant $\alpha$ is
- A$2.5$
- B$1.5$
- C$2$

View SolutionAn ideal gas with pressure $P$, volume $V$ and temperature $T$ is expanded isothermally to volume $2V$ and a final pressure $P_i$. The same gas is expanded adiabatically to a volume $2V$ then the final pressure is $P_a$. In terms of $\gamma$, the ratio of the two specific heats for the gas, the ratio $P_i/P_a$ is

View SolutionTwo moles of helium gas $\left(\gamma = \frac{5}{3}\right)$ at $27^{\circ} C$ is expanded at constant pressure until its volume is doubled. Then it undergoes an adiabatic change until the temperature returns to its initial value. The work done during the adiabatic process is (universal gas constant $R = 8.3 \ J \ mol^{-1} \ K^{-1}$) (in $J$)
Helium gas undergoes a cycle $ABCDA$ (consisting of two isochoric and two isobaric lines) as shown in the figure. The efficiency of this cycle is nearly ....... $\%$ (Assume the gas to be an ideal gas).
