Which of the following parameters does not characterize the thermodynamic state of matter ?
Temperature
Pressure
Work
Volume
Which statement is incorrect ?
All reversible cycles have same efficiency.
Reversible cycle has more efficiency than an irreversible one.
Carnot cycle is a reversible one.
Carnot cycle has the maximum efficiency of all the cycles.
The equation of state for 5g of oxygen at a pressure p and temperature T, when occupying a volume V, will be:
pV = (5/32)RT
pV = 5 RT
pV = (5/2)RT
pV = (5/16)RT
1 g of water at atmospheric pressure has volume of 1 cm3 and when boiled it becomes 1681 cm3 of steam. The heat of vaporisation of water is 540 cal/g. Then the change in its internal energy in this process is :
540 cal
500 cal
1681 cal
none of these
When a system is taken from the initial state i to final state f along he path iaf, it is found that Q = 50 cal and W = 20 cal. If along the path ibf, Q = 36 cal, then W along the path ibf is:
6 cal
16 cal
66 cal
14 cal
Initial pressure and volume of a gas are P and V respectively. First the gas is expanded isothermally to 4V and then its volume is made V by adiabatic process. Its final pressure (γ = 1.5) is:
8 P
4 P
P
2 P
A thermodynamic system is taken through the cycle PQRSP process. The net work done by the system is :
20 J
-20 J
400 J
-374 J
In an adiabatic system which is true ?
PγTγ-1 = constant
PγT1-γ = constant
PTγ = constant
P1-γTγ = constant
In an adiabatic process, the state of a gas is changed from P1, V1, T1 to P2, V2, T2. Which of the following relations is correct ?
A system goes from A to B via two processes I and II as shown in the figure. If ΔU1 and ΔU2are the changes in internal energies in the processes I and II respectively, then
ΔU1 = ΔU2
ΔU1 > ΔU2
ΔU1 < ΔU2
relation between ΔU1 and ΔU2 cannot be determined.
