An ideal gas is enclosed in a volume by means of a piston-cylinder arrangement as shown in the adjacent diagram. The piston as well as the walls of the cylinder are non-conducting. The cross-sectional area of the piston is \(A.\) Gravity \(g\) is acting downward. A small block of mass \(m\) is placed on top of the piston. There is no atmospheric pressure outside. An amount of thermal energy \(\Delta Q\) is slowly supplied to the gas, and its temperature rises. Then, the gas:

1. expands continuously, making the volume infinite.
2. first expands and then contracts slightly.
3. expands and then reaches a steady-state.
4. expands and then contracts to return to its initial volume.

In a reversible process, the change in internal energy \(U\) of an ideal gas \((C_P/C_V=\gamma)\) is zero, while the volume increases from \(V\) to \(2V\). If the initial pressure is \(P\), the final pressure will be:

1. \(2P\) 2. \(\dfrac P2\)
3. \(P\) 4. \(\dfrac{P}{2^\gamma}\)

An ideal monoatomic gas at a temperature of \(300\) K and a pressure of \(10\) atm is suddenly allowed to expand into vacuum so that its volume is doubled. No exchange of heat is allowed to take place between the gas and its surroundings during the process. After equilibrium is reached, the final temperature is:
1.  \(300\) K 2.  \(\dfrac{300}{2^{5/3}}\) K
3. \(\dfrac{300}{2^{2/3}}\) K 4.  \(600\) K

The internal energy of a gas is given by \(U=\dfrac32PV.\) The gas expands in such a way that its internal energy (initially \(U_0\)) remains constant throughout the process, but its volume changes from \(V_0\) to \(2V_0.\) The heat supplied to the gas equals:
1. \(U_0\mathrm{ln}(2)\) 2. \(\dfrac12U_0~\mathrm{ln}(2)\)
3. \(\dfrac13U_0~\mathrm{ln}(2)\) 4. \(\dfrac23U_0~\mathrm{ln}(2)\)

An ideal gas obeys the law \(P^2V\) = constant during a reversible thermodynamic process. The relationship between volume \((V)\) and absolute temperature \((T)\) during this process is:
1. \(\dfrac {V}{T}\) = constant 2. \(\dfrac {V^2}{T}\) = constant
3. \(\dfrac {T^2}{V}\) = constant 4. \(TV^2\) = constant

An ideal gas forms the working substance of a Carnot engine, and is taken around the Carnot cycle. We form the integral:    \(I=\int\dfrac{dQ}{T},\)
where \(dQ\) is the heat supplied to the gas and \(T\) is the temperature of the gas. The integral is evaluated over the entire cycle. The value of the integral \(I\) is:
1. zero
2. negative
3. positive
4. non-negative(positive or zero)
