shows a cylindrial tube of volume V with adiabatic walls containing an ideal gas. The internal energy of this ideal gas is given by 1.5nRT. The tube is divided into two equal parts by a fixed diathermic wall. Initially, the pressure and the tempreture are p_(1), T_(1) on the left and p_(2), T_(2) on the right. the system is left for sufficient time so that the tempreture becomes equal on the two sides. (a) how much work has been done by the gas on the left part ? (b) find the final pressures on the two sides. (c ) find the final equilibrium tempreture. (d) how much heat has flown from the gas on the right to the gas on the left ?

Ram and Ali have been fast friends since childhood. Ali neglected studies and now has no means to earn money other than a channel whereas Ram has become an engineer. Now both are working in the same factory. Ali uses camel to transport the load within the factory. Due to low salary and degradation in health of camel, Ali becomes worried and meets his friend Ram and discusses his problems. Ram collected some data and with some assumptions concluded the following: i. The load used in each trip is 1000kg and has friction coefficient mu_k=0.1 and mu_s=0.2 . ii. Mass of camel is 500kg . iii. Load is accelerated for first 50m with constant acceleration, then it is pulled at a constant speed of 5ms^-1 for 2km and at last stopped with constant retardation in 50m . iv. From biological data, the rate of consumption of energy of camel can be expressed as P=18xx10^3v+10^4Js^-1 where P is the power and v is the velocity of the camel. After calculations on different issues, Ram suggested proper food, speed of camel, etc. to his friend. For the welfare of Ali, Ram wrote a letter to the management to increase his salary. (Assuming that the camel exerts a horizontal force on the load): The ratio of the energy consumed by the camel during uniform motion for the two cases when it moves with speed 5ms^-1 to the case when it moves with 10ms^-1

A sample contains two isotopes -one stale and the other unstable. Number of stable nuclei is equal to N_(s) and number of unstable nuclei is equal to N_(u) . After a time the activity of the sample decreased to one thrid of the, the initial activity while the total number of nuclei (excluding decayed nuclei) became half. find the initial value of the ratio N_(s)//N_(u) .
