This is a short answer type question as classified in NCERT Exemplar
For adiabatic change process we know
P1V1y= P2V2y
P (V+ )y = (P+ )Vy
PVy (1+ ) y=p (1+ )Vy
PVy (1+ ) PVy (1+ )
Y
dV=
hence work done increasing the pressure from P1 to P2
W=

Explanation – In the circuit when an electron approaches a junction, in addition to the uniform E that faces it normally (which keep the drift velocity fixed), as drift velocity (vd) is directly proportional to Electric field (E). That's why there are accumulation of charges on the surface of wires at the junction.
These produce additional electric fields. These fields alter the direction of momentum. Thus, the motion of a charge across junction is not momentum conserving

Height of stairs h= 10m
Energy produced by burning 1 kg of fat = 7000Kcal
Energy produced by burning 5kg of fat = 5
Energy utilised in going up and down one time
= mgh + =
=
= 9000J= 9000/4.2=3000/1.4cal
Number of times, the person has to go up and down the stairs
= = 16.3 times

This is a Long Answer Type Questions as classified in NCERT Exemplar
Explanation- applying kirchhoff's junction rule I1 = I+I2
Applying kirchhoff's rule in outer loop containing 10V cell
10= IR+10I1……………. (1)
Applying kirchhoff's rule in outer loop containing 2V cell
2= 5I2-RI= 5 (I1-I)-RI
4= 10I1-10I-RI………… (2)
From 1 and 2
6=3RI+10I
2=I (R+10/3)
V= I (R+Reff)
After comparing V=2V, Reff= 10/3 ohm
Since effective internal resistance Reff of two cells 10/3 ohm, being the parallel combination 5 ohm and 10 ohm . the equivalent circuit is

Temperature of the source T1= 500K and sink T2= 300K
Work done W= 1000J
Efficiency of Carnot engine = 1-T2/T1= 1-300/500= 200/500= 2/5
Efficiency = W/Q1
So Q1= W/efficiency = 1000

This is a short answer type question as classified in NCERT Exemplar
During driving temperature of the gas increases while volume remains constant. So according charle's law, at constant volume V.
Pressure is directly proportional to temperature. Therefore pressure of gas increases.

This is a short answer type question as classified in NCERT Exemplar
Yes during adiabatic compression the temperature of a gas increases while no heat is
In adiabatic compression dQ=0
From the first law of thermodynamics dU= dQ-dW
dU=-dW
in compression work is done on the gas i.e work done is negative
dU=positive
hence internal energy of the gas increases due to which its temperature increases.
