Can two isothermal curves intersect each other?

Statement - 1 : In following figure curve (i) and (iv) represent isothermal process while (ii) & (iii) represent adiabatic process. Statement - 2 :The adiabatic at any point has a steeper slope than the isothermal through the same point .

Two monochromatic and coherent point sources of light are placed at a certain distance from each other in the horizontal plane. The locus of all thos points in the horizontal plane which have constructive interference will be-

ab and bc curves in the figure represent an isothermal and an adiabatic process respectively. Show that at the point b the ratio of the slopes of isothermal and adiabatic curves is equal to C_P/C_V .

Assertion: The specific heat of a gas in an adiabatic process is zero and in an isothermal process is infinite. Reason: Specific heat of a gas is directly proportional to the heat in system and inversely proportional to change in temperature.

A gas takes part in two processes in which it is heated from the same initial state 1 to the same final temperature. The processes are shown on the p-V diagram by the straight lines 1-3 and 1-2. 2 and 3 are the points on the same isothermal curve. Q_1 and Q_2 are the heat transfer along the two processes. Then,

A rectangular pipe having cross-sectional area A is closed at one end and at its other end a block having same cross-section is placed so that the system is airtight. In the equilibrium position of the block, the pressure and volume of air enclosed in the pipe and P and V respectively. Prove that the block performs SHM when it is given a small displacement 'x' inward and released. Also find the period of this SHM. Assume the walls to be frictionless and compression of air to be isothermal.

The adjacent figure shows a thin plano-convex lens of refractive index mu_1 and a thin plano-concave lens of refractive index mu_2 , both having same radius of curvature R of their curved surfaces. The thin lens of refractive index mu_3 has radius of curvature R of both its surfaces. This lens is so placed in between the plano-convex and plano-concave lenses that the plane surfaces are parallel to each other. The focal length of the combination is
