A diatomic gas is enclosed in a vessel fitted with massless movable piston. Area of cross section of vessel is 1m^2 . Initial height of the piston is 1m (see the figure). The initial temperature of the gas is 300K. The temperature of the gas is increased to 400K, keeping pressure constant, calculate the new height of the piston. The piston is brought to its initial position with no heat exchange. Calculate the final temperature of the gas. You can leave answer in fraction.

Increase in temperature of a gas filled in a container would lead to:

The rectangular box shown in Fig has partition which can slide without friction along the length of the box. Initially each of the two chambers of the box has one mole of a mono-atomic ideal gas (lambda=5//3) at a pressure P_0 , volume V_0 and temperature T_0 . The chamber on the left is slowly heated by an electric heater. The walls of the box and the lead wires of the heater is negligible. The gas in the left chamber expands pushing the partition until the final pressure in both chambers becomes 243P_0//32 . Determine (i) the final temperature of the gas in each chamber and (ii) the work done by the gas in the right chamber.
