A reversible adiabatic path on a P-V diagram for an ideal gas passes through state A where P=0.7×105N/m2and v=0.0049m3. The ratio of specific heat of the gas is 1.4. The slope of path at A is

a
2.0×107Nm−5
b
1.0×107Nm−5
c
−2.0×107Nm−5
d

A gas is enclosed in a cylinder with a movable frictionless piston. Its initial thermodynamic state at pressure P1=105Pa and volume Vi=103m3  changes to final state at Pf=132×105pa&Vf=8×103m3in an adiabatic quasi-static process, such that P3V5= constant. Consider another thermodynamic process that brings the system form the same initial state to the same final state in two steps: an isobaric expansion at Pi followed by an isochoric (is volumetric) process at volumeVf. The amount of heat supplied to the system in the two-step process is approximately
