In a Carnot engine, the temperature of reservoir is 927°C and that of sink is 27°C. If the work done by the engine when it transfers heat from reservoir to sink is 12.6 x 10⁶ J, the quantity of heat absorbed by the engine from the reservoir is

• 16.8 × 10⁶ J

• 4 × 10⁶ J

• 7.6 × 10⁶ J

• 4.25 × 10⁶ J

In the given p-V diagram, I is the initial state and F is the final state.

The gas goes from I to F by

(i) IAF      (ii) IBF          (iii) ICF

The heat absorbed by gas is

• the same in all three processes

• the same in (i) and (ii)

• greater in (i) than in (ii)

• the same in (i) and (iii)

The p-V diagram of a gas undergoing a cyclic process (ABCDA) is shown in the graph where p is in units of Nm and V in cm. Identify the incorrect statement.

• 0.4 J of work is done by the gas from A to B.

• 0.2 J of work is done on the gas from C and D.

• Work is done by the gas in going from B to Cand on the gas from D to A.

• Net work done by the gas in one cycle is 0.2 J.

A closed gas cylinder is divided into two parts by a piston held tight. The pressure and volume of gas in two parts respectively are (p, 5V) and (l0p, V). If now the piston is left free and the system undergoes isthermal process, then the volume of the gas in two parts respectively are 

• $\frac{10}{11} \mathrm{V}, \frac{20}{11} \mathrm{V}$

• 3 V, 3 V

• 5 V, V

• 4 V, 2 V

• 580 K

• 145 K

Two moles of exygen is mixed with eight moles of helium. The effective specific heat of the mixture at constant volume is

800 cc volume of a gas having $\mathrm{\gamma } = \frac{5}{3}$ is suddenly compressed adiabatically to 100 cc. If the initial pressure is P, then the final pressure will be

• $\frac{\mathrm{P}}{32}$

• $\left(\frac{24}{5}\right) \mathrm{P}$

• 8 P

• 32 P

An ice box made of Styrofoam (Thermal conductivity = 0.01 Jm^-1 s^-1 K^-1) is used to keep liquids cool. It has a total wall area including lid of 0.8 m² and wall thickness of 2.0cm. A bottle of water is placed in box and filled with ice. If the outside temperature is 30°C, the rate of flow of heat into the box is ( in J s^-1)
