The initial pressure and volume of a given mass of an ideal gas with CpCV=γ, taken in a cylinder fitted with a piston, are p0 and V0 respectively. At this stage the gas has the same temperature as that of the surrounding medium which is T0. It is adiabatically compressed to a volume equal to V02.
Subsequently the gas is allowed to come to thermal equilibrium with the surroundings. What is the heat released to the surrounding?

For an ideal gas with initial pressure and volume pi and Vi respectively, a reversible isothermal expansion happens, when its volume becomes V0. Then, it is compressed to its original volume Vi by a reversible adiabatic process. If the final pressure is pf then which of the following statement(s) is/are true?

Consider an engine that absorbs 130 cal of heat from a hot reservoir and delivers 30 cal heat to a cold reservoir in each cycle. The engine also consumes 2 J energy in each cycle to overcome friction. If the engine works at 90 cycles per minute, what will be the maximum power delivered to the load?
