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 \(\frac{T_1}{T_2}\) is given by:
1. \(\left(\frac{L_1}{L_2}\right)^{\frac{2}{3}}\)
2. \(\frac{L_1}{L_2}\)
3. \(\frac{L_2}{L_1}\)
4. \(\left(\frac{L_2}{L_1}\right)^{\frac{2}{3}}\)

An ideal gas expands isothermally from a volume V₁ to V₂ and then compressed to original volume V₁ adiabatically. Initial pressure is P₁ and final pressure is P₃. The total work done is W. Then -

(1) $P_3>P_1,W>0$

(2) $P_3<P_1,W<0$

(3) $P_3>P_1,W<0$

(4) $P_3=P_1,W=0$

An insulator container contains \(4\) moles of an ideal diatomic gas at a temperature \(T.\) If heat \(Q\) is supplied to this gas, due to which \(2\) moles of the gas are dissociated into atoms, but the temperature of the gas remains constant, then:
1. \(Q=2RT\)
2. \(Q=RT\)
3. \(Q=3RT\)
4. \(Q=4RT\)

The volume of air (diatomic) increases by \(5\%\) in its adiabatical expansion. The percentage decrease in its pressure will be:

The temperature of a hypothetical gas increases to $\sqrt{2}$ times when compressed adiabatically to half the volume. Its equation can be written as

(1) PV^3/2 = constant

(2) PV^5/2 = constant

(3) PV^7/3 = constant

(4) PV^4/3 = constant

Two Carnot engines A and B are operated in succession. The first one, A receives heat from a source at \(T_1=800\) K and rejects to sink at \(T_2\) K. The second engine, B, receives heat rejected by the first engine and rejects to another sink at \(T_3=300\) K. If the work outputs of the two engines are equal, then the value of \(T_2\) will be:

Two samples A and B of a gas initially at the same pressure and temperature are compressed from volume V to V/2 (A isothermally and B adiabatically). The final pressure of A is 

(1) Greater than the final pressure of B

(2) Equal to the final pressure of B

(3) Less than the final pressure of B

(4) Twice the final pressure of B

The initial pressure and volume of a gas are \(P\) and \(V\), respectively. First, it is expanded isothermally to volume \(4V\) and then compressed adiabatically to volume \(V\). The final pressure of the gas will be: [Given: \(\gamma = 1.5\)]

A thermally insulated rigid container contains an ideal gas heated by a filament of resistance 100 Ω through a current of 1A for 5 min . Then change in internal energy is -

(1) 0 kJ

(2) 10 kJ

(3) 20 kJ

(4) 30 kJ

A reversible engine converts one-sixth of the heat input into work. When the temperature of the sink is reduced by \(62^{\circ}\mathrm{C}\), the efficiency of the engine is doubled. The temperatures of the source and sink are: 
1. \(80^{\circ}\mathrm{C}, 37^{\circ}\mathrm{C}\)
2. \(95^{\circ}\mathrm{C}, 28^{\circ}\mathrm{C}\)
3. \(90^{\circ}\mathrm{C}, 37^{\circ}\mathrm{C}\)
4. \(99^{\circ}\mathrm{C}, 37^{\circ}\mathrm{C}\)
