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 ${T_1}/{T_2}$ is given by
${\left( {\frac{{{L_1}}}{{{L_2}}}} \right)^{2/3}}$
$\frac{{{L_1}}}{{{L_2}}}$
$\frac{{{L_2}}}{{{L_1}}}$
${\left( {\frac{{{L_2}}}{{{L_1}}}} \right)^{2/3}}$
In an adiabatic change, the pressure $P$ and temperature $T$ of a monoatomic gas are related by the relation $P \propto {T^C}$, where $C$ equals
The work of $146\,kJ$ is performed in order to compress one kilo mole of a gas adiabatically and in this process the temperature of the gas increases by $7\,^oC$ . The gas is $(R = 8.3\, J\, mol^{-1}\, K^{-1})$

An ideal monoatomic gas is confined in a horizontal cylinder by a spring loaded piston (as shown in the figure). Initially the gas is at temperature $T _1$, pressure $P_1$ and volume $V_1$ and the spring is in its relaxed state. The gas is then heated very slowly to temperature $T_2$, pressure $P _2$ and volume $V _2$. During this process the piston moves out by a distance $x$. Ignoring the friction between the piston and the cylinder, the correct statement$(s)$ is(are)
$(A)$ If $V_2=2 V_1$ and $T_2=3 T_1$, then the energy stored in the spring is $\frac{1}{4} P_1 V_1$
$(B)$ If $V_2=2 V_1$ and $T_2=3 T_1$, then the change in internal energy is $3 P_1 V_1$
$(C)$ If $V_2=3 V_1$ and $T_2=4 T_1$, then the work done by the gas is $\frac{7}{3} P_1 V_1$
$(D)$ If $V_2=3 V_1$ and $T_2=4 T_1$, then the heat supplied to the gas is $\frac{17}{6} P_1 V_1$
