What is an isothermal process, adiabatic process and isobaric process ? Write the first law of thermodynamics for an ideal gas.
Two identical balls, $A$ and $B$ , of uniform composition and initially at the same temperature, each absorb exactly the same amount of heat. $A$ is hanging down from the ceiling while $B$ rests on the horizontal floor in the same room. Assuming no subsequent heat loss by the balls, which of the following statements is correct about their final temperatures, $T_A$ and $T_B$ , once the balls have reached their final state?
In an adiabatic process, the state of a gas is changed from ${P_1},{V_1},{T_1} $ to ${P_2},{V_2},{T_2}$. Which of the following relation is correct
An ideal gas is compressed to half its initial volume by means of several processes. Which of the process results in the maximum work done on the gas?
The volume of air increases by $5\%$ in its adiabatic expansion. The percentage decrease in its pressure will be ...... $\%$
Consider a cycle tyre being filled with air by a pump. Let $V$ be the volume of the tyre (fixed) and at each stroke of the pump $\Delta V$ $(< < V)$ of air is transferred to the tube adiabatically. What is the work done when the pressure in the tube is increased from $P_1$ to $P_2$ ?
