In an adiabatic expansion, the temperature of one mole of an ideal monatomic gas $(\gamma = 5/3)$ decreases from $60 \text{ K}$ to $50 \text{ K}$. The work done by the gas in the process is : (Take the universal gas constant as $R = 8.3 \text{ J mol}^{-1} \text{ K}^{-1}$) (in $\text{ J}$)

$A$ spherical bubble inside water has radius $R$. Take the pressure inside the bubble and the water pressure to be $p_0$. The bubble now gets compressed radially in an adiabatic manner so that its radius becomes $(R-a)$. For $a \ll R$,the magnitude of the work done in the process is given by $(4 \pi p_0 R a^2) X$,where $X$ is a constant and $\gamma = C_p / C_V = 41 / 30$. The value of $X$ is:

$A$ monoatomic gas is filled in a cylindrical container with a piston at temperature $T_1$. It undergoes an adiabatic expansion such that its temperature becomes $T_2$. If $L_1$ and $L_2$ are the lengths of the gas column before and after the expansion respectively,then $T_1/T_2$ is equal to:
