LPG is obtained during the process of oil refining. It is compressed under high pressure and supplied to households in cylinders in a liquid form. CNG is obtained along with the mixture of different fuels which is extracted from oil well. CNG is also sold in cylinders, compressed into a liquid form.
What do letters CNG stand for?

A

Carbon and nitrogen gas

B

Compressed nitrogen gas

C

Coal and natural gas

D

Compressed natural gas

The correct Answer is:
To answer the question "What do letters CNG stand for?", we can break it down into the following steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Acronym**: The letters in the acronym CNG are C, N, and G. 2. **Define Each Letter**: - **C** stands for "Compressed". - **N** stands for "Natural". - **G** stands for "Gas". 3. **Combine the Definitions**: When we put these definitions together, CNG stands for "Compressed Natural Gas". 4. **Contextual Understanding**: CNG is primarily used as a fuel for vehicles and is known for being a cleaner alternative to other fossil fuels, producing less pollution during combustion. 5. **Final Answer**: Therefore, the letters CNG stand for "Compressed Natural Gas".

A cylindrical container of height 3L and cross sectional area A is fitted with a smooth movable piston of negligible weight. It contains an ideal diatomic gas. Under normal atmospheric pressure P_(0) the piston stays in equilibrium at a height L above the base of the container. The gas chamber is provided with a heater and a copper coil through which a cold liquid can be circulated to extract heat from the gas. Volume occupied by the heater and the liquid coil is negligible. Following set of operations are performed to take the gas through a cyclic process. (1) Heater is switched on. At the same time a tap above the cylinder is opened. Water fills slowly in the container above the piston and it is observed that the piston does not move. Water is allowed to fill the container so that the height of water column becomes L. Now the tap is closed. (2) The heater is kept on and the piston slowly moves up. Heater is switched off at the time water is at brink of overflowing. (3) Now the cold liquid is allowed to pass through the coil. The liquid extracts heat from the gas. Water is removed from the container so as to keep the position of piston fixed. Entire water is removed and the gas is brought back to atmospheric pressure. (4) The circulation of cold liquid is continued and the piston slowly falls down to the original height L above the base of the container. Circulation of liquid is stopped. Assume that the container is made of adiabatic wall and density of water is rho . Force on piston due to impact of falling water may be neglected. (a) Draw the entire cycle on a P–V graph. (b) Find the amount of heat supplied by the heater and the amount of heat extracted by the cold liquid from the gas during the complete cycle.
