HARD
A solid body of constant heat capacity 1 J -1 is being heated by keeping it in contact with reservoirs in two ways: (i) Sequentially keeping in contact with 2 reservoirs such that each reservoir supplies the same amount of heat. (ii) Sequentially keeping in contact with 8 reservoirs such that each reservoir supplies the same amount of heat. In both, cases the body is brought from initial temperature 100 K to final temperature 200 K . Entropy change of the body in the two cases respectively is: Note: This question was awarded as a bonus since temperatures were given in centigrade instead of in Kelvin. Proper corrections are made in the question to avoid it.

Graphs below show the entropy versus energy U of two systems 1 and 2 at constant volume. The initial energies of the systems are indicated by U1, i and U2, i , respectively. Graphs are drawn to the same scale. The systems are then brought into thermal contact with each other. Assume that, at all times the combined energy of the two systems remains constant. Choose the most appropriate option indicating the energies of the two systems and the total entropy after they achieve the equilibrium.
