A system goes from A to B via two processes I and II as shown in figure. If ΔUI and ΔUII are the changes in internal energies in the processes I and II respectively, then 

(1) ΔUII > ΔUI

(2) ΔUII < ΔUI

(3) ΔUI = ΔUII

(4) Relation between ΔUI and ΔUII can not be determined

The pressure versus temperature graph of an ideal gas is as shown in the figure. The density of the gas at point \(A\) is \({\mathit{\rho}}_{0}\). Density at point \(B\) will be:
1. \(\dfrac{3}{4}{\mathit{\rho}}_{0}\) 2. \(\dfrac{3}{2}{\mathit{\rho}}_{0}\)
3. \(\dfrac{4}{3}{\mathit{\rho}}_{0}\) 4. \(2{\mathit{\rho}}_{0}\)
