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

  • A
    $2^{\gamma+1}$
  • B
    $2^{\gamma-1}$
  • C
    $2^{1-\gamma}$
  • D
    $2^{\gamma}$

$A$ given mass of a gas is compressed isothermally until its pressure is doubled. It is then allowed to expand adiabatically until its original volume is restored and its pressure is then found to be $0.75$ of its initial pressure. The ratio of the specific heats of the gas is approximately:

$A$ certain amount of gas of volume $V$ at $27^{\circ}C$ temperature and pressure $2 \times 10^{7} \; N m^{-2}$ expands isothermally until its volume gets doubled. Later it expands adiabatically until its volume gets redoubled. The final pressure of the gas will be (Use $\gamma = 1.5$)

Two cylinders $A$ and $B$ fitted with pistons contain equal amount of an ideal diatomic gas at $303 \text{ K}$. The piston of cylinder $A$ is free to move and that of cylinder $B$ is held fixed. The same amount of heat is given to the gas in each cylinder. If the rise in temperature of the gas in cylinder $B$ is $63 \text{ K}$, then the rise in temperature of the gas in $A$ is: (in $\text{ K}$)

$A$ reversible cyclic process for an ideal gas is shown below. Here,$P, V$,and $T$ are pressure,volume,and temperature,respectively. The thermodynamic parameters $q, w, H$,and $U$ are heat,work,enthalpy,and internal energy,respectively.
