A monoatomic gas at a pressure $P$, having a volume $V$ expands isothermally to a volume $4V$ and then adibatically to volume $16\, V$. The final pressure of the gas is (Take $\gamma  = \frac{3}{2}$)

During an adiabatic process the pressure of the gas is found to be proportional to the cube of the absolute temperature. The ratio $C_P/C_V = \gamma $ for the gas is

When a system is taken from thermodynamic state $i$ to $f$ along the path $iaf$ (see figure), it is found that the heat $Q$ absorbed by the system is $50\ cal$ and work $W$ done by the system is equal to $20\ cal$ . Along the path ibf $Q = 36\ cal$ . What is $W$ along the path ibf?  ........... $\mathrm{cal}$

Gas obey $P^2V =$ constant. The initial temperature and volume are $T_0$ and $V_0$. If gas expands to volume $2V_0$, its final temperature becomes

Figure below shows two paths that may be taken by a gas to go from a state $A$ to a state $C$. In process $AB$, $400\, J$ of heat is added to the system and in process $BC$, $100\, J$ of heat is added to the system. The heat absorbed by the system in the process $AC$ will be ............. $\mathrm{J}$
