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? ........... $\mathrm{cal}$

$5.6$ liter of helium gas at $STP$ is adiabatically compressed to $0.7$ liter. Taking the initial temperature to be $T_1$, the work done in the process is
The efficiency of a carnot engine is $0.6$.It rejects total $20 \ J$ of heat. The work done by the engine is .... $J$
During an experiment an ideal gas is found to obey an additional law $VP^2 =$ constant. The gas is initially at temperature $T$ and volume $V$. What will be the temperature of the gas when it expands to a volume $2V$?
A Carnot engine has an efficiency of $1/6$. When the temperature of the sink is reduced by $62\,^oC$, its efficiency is doubled. The temperatures of the source and the sink are, respectively
$3\, moles$ of an ideal monoatomic gas perform a cycle as shown in the figure. The gas temperature in different states are: $T_1 = 400\, K$, $T_2 = 800\, K$, $T_3 = 2400\, K$ and $T_4 = 1200\,K$. The work done by the gas during the cycle is ...... $kJ$
