Statement - 1: The temperature dependence of resistance is usually given as $$R = {R_0}\left( {1 + \alpha \,\Delta t} \right).$$ The resistance of wire changes from $$100\Omega $$ to $$150\Omega $$ when its temperature is increased from $${27^ \circ }C$$ to $${227^ \circ }C$$. This implies that $$\alpha = 2.5 \times {10^{ - 3}}/C.$$

Statement - 2: $$R = {R_0}\left( {1 + \alpha \,\Delta t} \right)$$ is valid only when the change in the temperature $$\Delta T$$ is small and $$\Delta T = \left( {R - {R_0}} \right) < < {R_0}.$$

Two moles of helium gas are taken over the cycle $$ABCD,$$ as shown in the $$P$$-$$T$$ diagram.

The work done on the gas in taking it from $$D$$ to $$A$$ is :

Two moles of helium gas are taken over the cycle $$ABCD$$, as shown in the $$P$$-$$T$$ diagram.

The net work done on the gas in the cycle $$ABCDA$$ is:

An insulated container of gas has two chambers separated by an insulating partition. One of the chambers has volume $${V_1}$$ and contains ideal gas at pressure $${P_1}$$ and temperature $${T_1}$$. The other chamber has volume $${V_2}$$ and contains ideal gas at pressure $${P_2}$$ and temperature $${T_2}$$. If the partition is removed without doing any work on the gas, the final equilibrium temperature of the gas in the container will be
