A gas at state A changes to state B through path I and II shown in figure. The changes in internal energy are ΔU1 and ΔU2 respectively. Then
Δ U1 > ΔU2
Δ U1 < ΔU2
Δ U1 = ΔU2
Δ U1 = ΔU2 = 0
The PT diagram for an ideal gas is shown in the figure, where AC is an adiabatic process. Find the corresponding PV diagram.
110 J of heat is added to a gaseous system, whose internal energy is 40 J, then the amount of external work done is
150 J
70 J
110 J
40 J
The efficiency of Carnot engine is 50% and temperature of sink is 500 K. If the temperature of source is kept constant and its efficiency is to be raised to 60%, then the required temperature of the sink will be
